Answer:

Applications in which ionizing radiation are not used are  

 MRI

ultrasound

 laser surgery

Explanation:

Ionizing radiation

Ionizing radiations are radiation which have sufficien energy to ionize an atom. Example of ionizing radiation are x rays, gamma rays and all particle radiation from radioactive decay

CT Scan

CT scan is an abbreviated form of computerized tomography. CT scan provide more information about a body than x-rays. In this test a sequence of x-ray images are taken at various angle of a body and these images after computer processing  provide information about the body. Since x-ray is ionizing radiation so in CT scan ionizing radiations are used.

Ultrasound

In ultra sound scan high frequency sound waves(which are not ionizing radiation) are used to find the information about a body.

MRI

MRI is an abbreviated form of Magnetic resonance imaging. In MRI scanning high intensity magnetic field and radio waves(which are not ionizing radiation) are used to find the information of a body.

Laser surgery

It is a type of surgery in which laser beam(which are not ionizing radiation) is used to cut the skin or to remove a lesion from skin surface.

Radiopharmaceuticals PET scan

PET scan is an abbreviated form of positron emission tomography scan. This test is used to find the images of a body to detect certain diseases like cancer and heart diseases in your body.  In this test radioactive tracers are used. In this test ionizing radiation are used.

What is the difference between work done by the gravitational force on descending and ascending objects?
Kazeer [188]
<span>The difference between work done by the gravitational force on descending and ascending objects is that for descending objects a terminal velocity will be reached where the object will not fall any faster that it already is. For an ascending object, its velocity will come down the longer gravity has an effect on it until the object begins to descend and the velocity of an ascending object will continue to change the longer gravity has an effect on it.</span>

A straightforward method of finding the density of an object is to measure its mass and then measure its volume by submerging it
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Incomplete question as the unit of volume is not written correctly.So the complete question is here:

A straightforward method of finding the density of an object is to measure its mass and then measure its volume by submerging it in a graduated cylinder. What is the density of a 240-g rock that displaces 89.0 cm³?

Answer:

d_{Density}=2.7g/cm^{3}

Explanation:

Given data

Mass m=240g

Volume V=89.0 cm³

To find

Density d

Solution

If rock displaces 89.0 cm³ of water means volume of rock is also 89cm³

So

d_{Density}=\frac{mass}{volume}\\d_{Density}=\frac{240g}{89.0cm^{3} } \\d_{Density}=2.7g/cm^{3}

An unknown material has a mass
atroni [7]

Answer: 1896.55J/kg°C

Explanation:

The quantity of Heat Energy (Q) required to heat a material depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)

Thus, Q = MCΦ

Since,

Q = 1320 joules

Mass of material = 5.61kg

C = ? (let unknown value be Z)

Φ = 0.124°C

Then, Q = MCΦ

1320J = 5.61kg x Z x 0.124°C

1320J = 0.696kg°C x Z

Z = (1320J / 0.696kg°C)

Z = 1896.55 J/kg°C

Thus, the specific heat of the material is 1896.55J/kg°C
