Answer:

Some examples are:

Reducing the work hours of the doctor (at least in that area): Being exposed less time to the radiation will decrease the total dose that the doctor receives in a day, reducing the risks in a big factor.

Work at distance, in a shielded place: Working far away from the machine and in a shielded place (walls with lead for example) will reduce the total radiation that reaches the doctor, so at the end of the day, the total dose will be greatly decreased.

A gold wire that is 1.8 mm in diameter and 15 cm long carries a current of 260 mA. How many electrons per second pass a given cr

Musya8 [376]

Answer:

162500000.

Explanation:

Given that

Diameter of the wire , d= 1.8 mm

The length of the wire ,L = 15 cm

Current ,I = 260 m A

The charge on the electron ,e= 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

We know that Current I is given as

$I=\dfrac{q}{t}$

I=Current

q=Charge

t=time

q= I t

q= 260 m t

The total number of electron = n

q= n e

$n=\dfrac{260\times 10^{-3}\ t}{1.6\times 10^{-9}}$

n=162500000 t

$\dfrac{n}{t}=16250000$

The number of electron passe per second will be 162500000.

Proved that V = u+at

kondaur [170]

Answer:

$\sf Proof \ below$

Explanation:

We know that acceleration is change in velocity over time.

$\sf a=\frac{\triangle v}{t}$

$\sf a=\frac{v-u}{t}$

v is the final velocity and u is the initial velocity.

Solve for v.

Multiply both sides by t.

$\sf at=v-u$

Add u to both sides.

$\sf at + u=v$

7. A block of copper of unknown mass has an initial temperature of 65.4oC. The copper is immersed in a beaker containing 95.7g o

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

37.34372 kg

Explanation:

m = Mass

$\Delta T$ = Change in temperature

1 denotes water

2 denotes copper

c = Heat capacity

Heat is given by

$Q=mc\Delta T$

In this case the heat transfer will be equal

$m_1c_1\Delta T_1=m_2c_2\Delta T_2\\\Rightarrow m_2=\frac{m_1c_1\Delta T_1}{c_2\Delta T_2}\\\Rightarrow m_2=\frac{95.7\times 4.18(24.2-22.7)}{0.39(65.4-24.2)}\\\Rightarrow m_2=37.34372\ kg$

Mass of copper block is 37.34372 kg
