A miner develops cancer of the esophagus. Ten years before, he had been exposed to radiation when he worked for a year in a mine

. He had also smoked cigarettes for a number of years, but had quit five years ago. Which statement best describes the miner’s condition? Tests can determine whether the cancer was caused by exposure at the mine or by compounds in cigarette smoke so that a treatment can be determined. Cancer caused by exposure at the mine would have appeared while he was at the mine, so smoking is the more likely cause. The cancer is likely the result of natural exposure to radiation in the environment and not related to either the mine or smoking. It is unlikely that a specific cause can be determined, but the treatment would likely be the same in either case.

Answer:

It is unlikely that a specific cause can be determined, but the treatment would likely be the same in either case.

Explanation:

It comes to a certain point when smoking that the damage is been done to the lungs and eventually the person could develop cancer of lungs, the same with the mining, the lungs eventually get damage from breathing that dense mineral air, so the cause of the cancer would be near impossible to determine, but the treatment would be the same nontheless, so the correct option would be D.

An astronaut drops a rock on the surface of an asteroid.The rock is released from rest at a height of 0.86 m above the ground, a
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

a_y=0.92m/s^2

Explanation:

To solve this problem we use the formula for accelerated motion:

y=y_0+v_{y0}t+\frac{a_yt^2}{2}

We will take the initial position as our reference (y_0=0m) and the downward direction as positive. Since the rock departs from rest we have:

y=\frac{a_yt^2}{2}

Which means our acceleration would be:

a_y=\frac{2y}{t^2}

Using our values:

a_y=\frac{2(0.86m)}{(1.37s)^2}=0.92m/s^2

An electromagnet on the ceiling of an airplane holds a steel ball. When a button is pushed, the magnet releases the ball. The ex
blagie [28]

Answer:

The ball will fall on the X .

Explanation:

At height,  when the aeroplane is in great speed , everything attached with it acquires the same speed . So ball will also have the same speed as the aeroplane have. When ball  starts falling off , it gets detached from plane but , at the same time it continues to travel with its earlier speed , because of inertia of motion. So it remains stationary with respect to plane in horizontal direction . It has velocity with respect to plane only in vertical direction. Hence it will fall on the X. It is due to first law of motion.

If two asteroids moved closer together, what would be the result on the gravitational force each asteroid exerts on the other?
spayn [35]
Gravitational force depends on inverse square law. That is, gravitational force is inversely proportional to square of distance between asteroids.
As distance between them decreases, gravitational force increases. Hence A is correct.

Compared to Jupiter, Saturn's atmosphere is more uniform with no significant variation in color in the lower cloud levels. much
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Compared to Jupiter, Saturn's atmosphere is more calm with fewer disturbances or storms.

The Atmosphere in Jupiter is highly violent and thinner as compared with Saturn.

The layers of atmosphere on Saturn is thicker because of lower gravity of Saturn and hence they are calmer.
