How can mechanical waves help in the treatment of cancer?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Andreas93 [3]1 year ago
4 0

Mechanical waves can help in the treatment of cancer due to heat generated by the high frequency waves.

<h3>What is mechanical wave?</h3>

A mechanical wave is a wave that requires material medium for its propagation, example include;

  • water waves,
  • sound waves, and
  • seismic waves.

<h3> Mechanical waves in treatment of cancers</h3>

Sound wave in example of mechanical wave because it requires material medium for its propagation.

High-frequency sound waves (HIFU) is used in the  treatment  of cancer because the strong beam generates heat which is directed to a specific part of a cancer.

The heat generated destroys the cancer cells.

Thus, mechanical waves can help in the treatment of cancer due to heat generated by the high frequency waves.

What is the volume of 33.25g of butane gas at 293 C and 10.934 kPa?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

V = 240.79 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of butane = ?

Temperature = 293°C

Pressure = 10.934 Kpa

Mass of butane = 33.25 g

Solution:

Number of moles of butane:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 33.25 g/ 58.12 g/mol

Number of mole s= 0.57 mol

Now we will convert the temperature and pressure units.

293 +273 = 566 K

Pressure = 10.934/101 = 0.11 atm

Volume of butane:

PV = nRT

P= Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  

T = temperature in kelvin

V = nRT/P

V = 0.57 mol × 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  ×566 K  / 0.11 atm

V = 26.49 L/0.11

V = 240.79 L

Does pressure decrease when a gas is removed
vovangra [49]

yes

Explanation:

the volume also decrease. as particles are removed from the space the gas is in, there is a decrease in the number of collisions.
