Answer:

The dose absorbed by the person's body is 52600 mrem.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radiation = 52.6 rad

We need to calculate the absorbed dose

We know that,

The equivalent dose is equal to the absorbed radiation for beta source.

So, The patient is exposed 52.6 rad of radiation.

Therefore, The absorbed radiation is equal to the exposed 52.6 rad of radiation.

1 rad = \dfrac{1\ rem}{1000\ mrem}

So, radiation absorbed = 52.6 rad

radiation\ absorbed =52.6\times1000\ mrem

radiation\ absorbed = 52600\ mrem

Hence, The dose absorbed by the person's body is 52600 mrem.

Explanation:QA: “What is ordinary glass made of ?”

Glass is mostly silica, or silicon dioxide, present as quartz in many types of sand. Pure silica forms a highly transparent glass, but has a very high melting or softening temperature, around 1700°C. Even at such high temperatures it is highly viscous and difficult to work. Its use is largely confined to applications requiring high transparency to ultra-violet and infra-red radiation, stability at elevated temperatures or low thermal expansion coefficient.

“Ordinary glass” windows and drinking vessels are typically made from soda-lime glass, containing silica with around 25% sodium, calcium and other oxides, which together reduce the softening temperature to roughly 500–600°C

mario62 [17]

Horizontal distance covered by a projectile is X = Vix *T

where Vix is the initial horizontal component of velocity and T is time taken by the projectile

Vix = ViCos theta

In question they said that initial velocity and angle is same on earth and moon

so Vix would remains same

now let's see about time taken T

time taken to reach the highest point

Vfy = Viy +gt

at highest point vertical velocity become zero so Vfy =0

0 = Vi Sin theta + gt

t = Vi Sintheta /g

Total time taken to land will be twice of that

On earth

Te= 2t

Te = 2Sinθ/g

on moon g is one-sixth of g(earth)

Tm = 2Sinθ/(g/6)

Tm = 6(2Sinθ/g)

Tm = 6Te

so total time taken by the projectile on moon will be six times the time taken on earth

From first equation X = Vix*T

we can see that X will also be 6 times on moon than earth

so projectile will cover 6 times distance on moon than on earth
