Question
the process of radioactive decay is unpredictable and irreversible. which option would be an appropriate model of the radioactive decay of a group of atoms? (1 point) petals falling from a flower throwing tennis balls over a fence breaking off pieces of wet clay popping a bag of popcorn
Radioactive decay is random and irreversible. Petals falling from a flower is a natural, random - like and irreversible process similar to radioactive decay in terms of being unpredictable in exact timing and non - reversible in the same sense. Popping a bag of popcorn is a controlled, heat - induced process, breaking off pieces of wet clay is a mechanical process with some control, and throwing tennis balls over a fence is a human - controlled action.
