The answer is Marie Skłodowska Curie (AKA Marie Curie). She <span>lived her life awash in ionizing radiation. She would be carrying bottles of the radium and polonium in the pocket of her coat and put them in her desk drawer. 
So even after a century, her papers are still radioactive. Since the</span><span> most general isotope of radium, which is radium-226, has a half life of 1,601 years.</span>

Answer:

1) Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a test that uses powerful magnets, radio waves, and a computer to make detailed pictures of the inside of your body.

Your doctor can use this test to diagnose you or to see how well you've responded to treatment. Unlike X-rays and computed tomography (CT) scans, MRIs don’t use the damaging ionizing radiation of X-rays.

2) MRIs employ powerful magnets which produce a strong magnetic field that forces protons in the body to align with that field. When a radiofrequency current is then pulsed through the patient, the protons are stimulated, and spin out of equilibrium, straining against the pull of the magnetic field.

3)  Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) uses a large magnet and radio waves to look at organs and structures inside your body. Health care professionals use MRI scans to diagnose a variety of conditions, from torn ligaments to tumors. MRIs are very useful for examining the brain and spinal cord.

4) The magnetic fields that change with time create loud knocking noises which may harm hearing if adequate ear protection is not used. They may also cause peripheral muscle or nerve stimulation that may feel like a twitching sensation. The radiofrequency energy used during the MRI scan could lead to heating of the body.

As a system expands, it absorbs 52.5 J of energy in the form of heat from the surroundings. The piston is working against a pres
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Vi = 0.055 m³ = 55 L

Explanation:

From first Law of Thermodynamics, we know that:

ΔQ = ΔU + W

where,

ΔQ = Heat absorbed by the system = 52.5 J

ΔU = Change in Internal Energy = -102.5 J (negative sign shows decrease in internal energy of the system)

W = Work Done in Expansion by the system = ?

Therefore,

52.5 J = - 102.5 J + W

W = 52.5 J + 102.5 J

W = 155 J

Now, the work done in a constant pressure condition is given by:

W = PΔV

W = P(Vf - Vi)

where,

P = Constant Pressure = (0.5 atm)(101325 Pa/1 atm) = 50662.5 Pa

Vf = Final Volume of System = (58 L)(0.001 m³/1 L) = 0.058 m³

Vi = Initial Volume of System = ?

Therefore,

155 J = (50662.5 Pa)(0.058 m³ - Vi)

Vi = 0.058 m³ - 155 J/50662.5 Pa

Vi = 0.058 m³ - 0.003 m³

<u>Vi = 0.055 m³ = 55 L</u>

What is the difference in PE
Blababa [14]

Answer:

831.4 J

Explanation:

Info given:

mass adult: 82.5kg

mass child: 14.7kg

height of wall: 1.25m

g = 9.81m/s^2

PE = mgh

For adult:

mgh = (82.5kg)(9.81m/s^2)(1.25m) = 1011.65 J

For child:

mgh = (14.7kg)(9.81m/s^2)(1.25m) = 180.25 J

Difference in PE: 1011.65 J - 180.25 J = 831.4 J
