Is cobalt 60 more dangerous than bananas ( potassium 40) and why ?

Chemistry
1 answer:
maxonik [38]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

To the best of my knowledge, it is because of the amount of gamma rays is given off.

Explanation:

While both are isotopes, Potassium 40 gives off fewer gamma rays compared to Cobalt 60. Potassium 40 isn't really harmful to humans, but Cobalt 60 (I believe) is used in chemotherapy.

Answer : The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

Astronomers have observed that light from the distant object in the universe is shifted towards the frequency of red color which indicates that those object are receding or moving away from the planet earth.This phenomena was termed as Red shift .Same thing goes for galaxies which are very far away from the planet earth.

Where as if galaxies were moving towards the the planet earth their light would have shifted toward the frequency of blue color termed as blue shift.

Hence, the correct answer is option C.

If the graph of y = a x 2 + b x + c does not intersect the x -axis, then what is true about the roots? Both are real roots. Both
Reptile [31]

Answer:

Both roots are imaginary roots.

Explanation:

Consider these things:

If we try to solve x²+1 = 0, notice that we aren't able to solve the equation in Real Number system because there are no negative outputs for quadratic function.

Remember that quadratic function has range greater or equal to the max-min value.

x-axis plane represents the solutions of that equation. If a graph intersects x-axis plane then it has a solution.

While a graph that doesn't have any intersects on x-plane, it means that the equation for that graph doesn't have real solutions but imaginary solutions.

As you may notice some of parabola graph has one intersect, two intersects or none. One intersect is one solution to the equation — Two intersects are two solutions of the equation and lastly, no intersects mean that no real solutions and remain only imaginary solution.
