Answer:
Few millimeter thick aluminium, water, wood, acrylic glass or plastic.
Explanation:
The materials that are best for protection against beta particles are few millimeter thickness of aluminium, but for the high energy beta-particles radiations the low atomic mass materials such as plastic, wood, water and acrylic glass can be used.
These materials can also be used in personal protective equipment which includes all the clothing that can be worn to prevent any injury or illness due to the exposure to radiation.
Answer
3.340J
Explanation;
Using the relation. Energy stored in capacitor = U = 7.72 J
U =(1/2)CV^2
C =(eo)A/d
C*d=(eo)A=constant
C2d2=C1d1
C2=C1d1/d2
The separation between the plates is 3.30mm . The separation is decreased to 1.45 mm.
Initial separation between the plates =d1= 3.30mm .
Final separation = d2 = 1.45 mm
(A) if the capacitor was disconnected from the potential source before the separation of the plates was changed, charge 'q' remains same
Energy=U =(1/2)q^2/C
U2C2 = U1C1
U2 =U1C1 /C2
U2 =U1d2/d1
Final energy = Uf = initial energy *d2/d1
Final energy = Uf =7.72*1.45/3.30
(A) Final energy = Uf = 3.340J
