The rate of growth of a population is proportional to the number present. if the population of a city doubled in the past 25 years, and the present population is 100000, when will the city have a population of 500000? [Given, log_e 5 = 1.609 , log_e 2 = 0.6931 . ]

Keith modeled the growth over several hundred years of a tree population by estimating the number of the trees’ pollen grains per square centimeter that were deposited each year within layers of a lake’s sediment. He estimated there were 310 pollen grains per square centimeter the first year the grains were deposited, with a 1% annual increase in the number of grains per square centimeter thereafter. Which of the following functions models P(t), the number of pollen grains per square centimeter t years after the first year the grains were deposited?

Simplified model of electron energy levels for a cartain atom is shown in figure. The atom is bombarded will fast moving electrons. The impact of one of these electrons can cause the removal of electron from K-level , thus, creating a vacancy in the K-level. This vacancy in K-level is filled by an electron from l-level and the energy reased in this transition can either appear as electromagnetic waves or may all be used knock out an electron from M-level of the atom. Based on above information, answer the following question: Wavelength of the electromagnetic waves emitted due to transition from L to K-level is
