A motorcycle slows down uniformly from a speed of 21 m/s to rest in 6.0s. How far did it travel during this time?

Verizon [17]

Answer:

63 m

Explanation:

The initial velocity of the motorcycle is

$v_i = 21 m/s$

The final velocity is

$v_f = 0$

And the time taken is

$t=6.0 s$

Since the acceleration of the motorcycle is uniform, we can find the distance traveled by the motorcycle during this time by using the following SUVAT equation:

$S=\frac{1}{2} (v_i +v_f) t$

Substituting numbers into the equation, we find

$S=\frac{1}{2}( 21 m/s + 0)(6.0 s)=63 m$

What are the three most important types of units in radiobiology? Explain the meaning of each.

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Most adverse health effects of radiation exposure may be grouped in two general categories:

deterministic effects (harmful tissue reactions) due in large part to the killing/ malfunction of cells following high doses; and

stochastic effects, i.e., cancer and heritable effects involving either cancer development in exposed individuals owing to mutation of somatic cells or heritable disease in their offspring owing to mutation of reproductive (germ)
