A 50 kg person receives an absorbed dose of gamma radiation of 20 millirads. What is the total energy absorbed?.

1 answer:

4 0

For a 50 kg person receives an absorbed dose of gamma radiation of 20 millirads, the total energy absorbed is mathematically given as

E=0.1457J

<h3>What is the total energy absorbed?</h3>

Generally, the equation for the total energy absorbed is mathematically given as

E=mass*gamma radiation

Therefore

E=50*20*19^{-3}

E=0.1457J

In conclusion, the total energy absorbed

E=0.1457J

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

% reduction in area = 54.26 %

percentage elongation = 43.16 %

Explanation:

a) percentage reduction in area $= \frac{(A_1 - A_2)}{A_1 } * 100$

$A_1 =\pi r^2 = \pi * 5.88^2=108.8 mm2$

$A_2=\pi * 3.98^2= 49.97 mm2$

% reduction in area = $\frac{(108.8 - 49.97)}{108.8} * 100 = 54.26 %$

b)percentage elongation $= \frac{(66 - 46.1)}{46.1} *100 = 43.16 %$

An alternator provides 20 A of peak current at 100 V peak AC to a resistive electric heater. How much heating power is delivered

Liono4ka [1.6K]

-- The resistance of the heater is (volts/current) = 5 ohms

-- The heating (RMS) value of a sinusoidal AC is V(peak)/√2 . For this particular alternator, V(peak)=100V, so the heating (RMS) equivalent is 70.71 V.

-- The heating power delivered to the electric heater is (E²/R).

Power = (100/√2)² / 5

Power = 5,000 / 5

<u>Power = 1,000 watts </u>
