State one way of reducing the risks to a doctor who uses gamma radiation.

Physics

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.

The power in a circuit is 2 W and the voltage is 20 VDC. What's the circuit current?
Aliun [14]

Answer:

Power in the circuit is 0.1 amp

Explanation:

The power in the circuit is given by the formula

      P = V x I

Where P is Power, V is voltage supplied and I is current in circuit.

so,      I = P/v

            = 2/20

            =0.1 A

What is a device that minimizes the force on a microscopic object during a collision?
liraira [26]
An impact which stops a moving object must do enough work to take away its kinetic energy, so extending the distance moved during the collision reduces the impact force.

3. What exerts a greater force on the table of 2 kg book lying flat or a 2 kg book on its
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

A book on its side exerts a greater force.

Explanation:

Pressure = Force / Area

Assuming that 1kg = 10N

2kg = 20N

Area of book lying flat = 0.3m × 0.2m

                                     = 0.6m²

Pressure of book lying flat = 20N / 0.6m²

                                            = 30Pa (1 s.f.)

Area of book on its side = 0.2m × 0.05m

                                        = 0.01m²

Pressure of book on its side = 20N / 0.01m²

                                               = 2000Pa (1 s.f.)

Since 2000Pa (1 s.f.) > 30Pa (1 s.f.), a book on its side applies greater pressure than lying flat.
