Explanation:

The wavelength of the ultraviolet rays lies in between 10 nm to 400 nm. UV rays can cause the following problems on human :

(1) It can increase the risk of skin cancer.

(2) It can cause cataract.

(3) It can cause painful sunburn.

(4) It can cause wrinkling and age on the skin.

So, it is advisable to use sunscreen before leaving home and use goggles. This is the cure for ultraviolet radiation.

State the methods of nuclear fission waste disposal and the suitability of each method.
Alexeev081 [22]
<span>Most low-level radioactive waste (LLW) is typically sent to land-based disposal immediately following its packaging for long-term management. This means that for the majority (~90% by volume) of all of the waste types produced by nuclear technologies, a satisfactory disposal means has been developed and is being implemented around the world.
</span>

Radioactive wastes are stored so as to avoid any chance of radiation exposure to people, or any pollution.The radioactivity of the wastes decays with time, providing a strong incentive to store high-level waste for about 50 years before disposal.Disposal of low-level waste is straightforward and can be undertaken safely almost anywhere.Storage of used fuel is normally under water for at least five years and then often in dry storage.<span>Deep geological disposal is widely agreed to be the best solution for final disposal of the most radioactive waste produced.

Which explains the information needed to calculate speed and velocity?
Anestetic [448]

Both require time, but velocity requires displacement and speed requires distance.

Explanation:

Speed and velocity are two different quantities. In fact:

- Speed is a scalar quantity, which gives a measure of how fast an object is moving, regardless of its direction. Therefore, it only has a magnitude, which is given by the ratio between distance covered and time taken:

s=\frac{distance}{time}

Therefore, speed does not take into account the direction of motion.

- Velocity, on the other hand, is a vector quantity, so it has magnitude and a direction.

The magnitude of the velocity is given by

v=\frac{displacement}{time}

where displacement is a vector connecting the initial point with the final point of motion of an object.

The direction of the velocity corresponds to the direction of the displacement.

It must be noted also that in certain situations, the average velocity is zero, while the speed is not zero: for example, for an object completing a circle in a certain time interval, its speed is not zero, while its velocity is zero (because the object returns to the starting point, so the displacement is zero.

Therefore, the correct answer is

Both require time, but velocity requires displacement and speed requires distance.

The equation Bold r (t )equals(8 t plus 9 )Bold i plus (2 t squared minus 8 )Bold j plus (6 t )Bold k is the position of a parti
KATRIN_1 [288]

Explanation:

It is given that, the position of a particle as as function of time t is given by :

r(t)=(8t+9)i+(2t^2-8)j+6tk

Let v is the velocity of the particle. Velocity of an object is given by :

v=\dfrac{dr(t)}{dt}

v=\dfrac{d[(8t+9)i+(2t^2-8)j+6tk]}{dt}

v=(8i+4tj+6k)\ m/s

So, the above equation is the velocity vector.

Let a is the acceleration of the particle. Acceleration of an object is given by :

a=\dfrac{dv(t)}{dt}

a=\dfrac{d[8i+4tj+6k]}{dt}

a=(4j)\ m/s^2

At t = 0, v=(8i+0+6k)\ m/s

v(t)=\sqrt{8^2+6^2} =10\ m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

Estimate the power you produce in running up a flight of stairs. Give your answer in horsepower (1 hp = 746 W). Suppose you clim
GarryVolchara [31]
The first thing you should do is calculate the work done when climbing the stairs. This work by definition will be given by:
 W = F * d
 W = (m * g) * (d)
 W = ((71) * (9.8)) * (3) = 2087.4J
 Then, you can calculate the power that in this case is given by
 P = W / t
 P = (2087.4) / (10) = 208.74W
 To have the result in HP we use the fact that 1HP = 746W
 P = (208.74) / (746)
 P = 0.28 HP
 answer
 the power you produce in running up a flight of stairs is 0.28 HP
