Answer:
The crest to trough distance = 8 m
Explanation:
Given that,
The amplitude of a particular wave is 4.0 m.
We need to find the crest to trough distance.
We know that,
Amplitude = The distance from the base line to the crest or the the distance from the baseline to the trough.
It means,
Distance from crest to trough = 2(Amplitude)
= 2(4)
= 8 m
Hence, the crest to trough distance is equal to 8 m.
A free-falling object is an object moving under the effect of gravitational forces alone
The correct option to select for the True or False question is False
The reason the above selected option is correct is as follows:
According to Newton's second law of motion, we have;
Force = Mass × Acceleration
The force of gravity is 
Where;

m = The mass of the object
∴ The force acting on an object in free fall,
= m × g
Therefore the acceleration of an object in free fall is the constant acceleration due to gravity, and it therefore, does not change with time
The correct option for the question, acceleration of a free-falling object in a frictionless environment increases as a function of time is <u>False</u>
<u></u>

Answer:
a) 0.0288 grams
b) 
Explanation:
Given that:
A typical human body contains about 3.0 grams of Potassium per kilogram of body mass
The abundance for the three isotopes are:
Potassium-39, Potassium-40, and Potassium-41 with abundances are 93.26%, 0.012% and 6.728% respectively.
a)
Thus; a person with a mass of 80 kg will posses = 80 × 3 = 240 grams of potassium.
However, the amount of potassium that is present in such person is :
0.012% × 240 grams
= 0.012/100 × 240 grams
= 0.0288 grams
b)
the effective dose (in Sieverts) per year due to Potassium-40 in an 80- kg body is calculate as follows:
First the Dose in (Gy) = 
= 
= 
Effective dose (Sv) = RBE × Dose in Gy
Effective dose (Sv) = 
Effective dose (Sv) =
