The product of the dosage Gy and relative biological efficiency yields a radiation dose equivalent Sv (RBE).

Sv =dose in Gy * RBE Sv=dose in GyRBE

The quantity of ionising energy absorbed by 1 text kg1 kg of tissue is defined as a radiation dose Gy. While RBE is a measure of a specific dose's biological effect relative to the biological effect of an equal quantity of X rays.

<h3>What is radiation?</h3>

Radiation is energy that moves through space at the speed of light from a source. This energy is coupled with an electric and magnetic field, and it exhibits wave-like qualities. Radiation is sometimes known as "electromagnetic waves."

Nature has a diverse variety of electromagnetic radiation. One example is visible light.

X-rays and gamma rays are extremely energetic. They may take electrons from atoms when they engage with them, causing the atom to become ionised.

A current of 15.0 A flows through an electric heater operating on 120 V. Compute the power consumption of the electric heater.
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

There will be 1800 W power consumption in heater

Explanation:

We have given current flowing in the heater I = 15 A

Voltage on which heater is operating V = 120 volt

We have to find the power consumption in the heater

We know that power consumption is given by P = VI

So power consumption in heater = 120 × 15 = 1800 W

So there will be 1800 W power consumption in heater

The temperature of the liquid in a container decreases as the liquid evaporates. Use kinetic theory to explain why.
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Temperature decreases because the number of collision of the molecules decreases as they escape or evaporate. Molecules are in constant motion. Increase in temperature leads to increase in average kinetic energy of the molecules.
