Rom4ik [11]3 years ago

Answer:

Most adverse health effects of radiation exposure may be grouped in two general categories:

deterministic effects (harmful tissue reactions) due in large part to the killing/ malfunction of cells following high doses; and

stochastic effects, i.e., cancer and heritable effects involving either cancer development in exposed individuals owing to mutation of somatic cells or heritable disease in their offspring owing to mutation of reproductive (germ)

A 20-cm long solenoid consists of 100 turns of a coil of radius r = 3.0 cm. A current of Io in the coiled wire produces a magnet
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

vi) Double the current in the wire, and double the number of turns in the 20-cm long solenoid

Explanation:

The magnetic field inside the solenoid and the current flowing in the coil of solenoid are related to each other by the following equation

B₀=μ₀nI₀

Where,

B₀ is the magnetic field in the middle of solenoid

n is the number of turns in the coil of solenoid

I₀ is the current flowing in the coil of solenoid

In the above equation, as μ₀ is a constant so the magnetic field will be directly proportional to the number of turns multiplied by the current. So, changing the radius of the coil or length of the coil will have no effect on the magnetic field.

As we have to increase the magnetic field by 4 times, we need to double the current as well as the number of turns as mentioned in the option vi.

You are riding in an elevator that is accelerating upward. Suppose you stand on a scale. The reading on the scale is __________.
tatyana61 [14]

Given the following choices;

A) less than your true weight, mg.

B) equal to your true weight, mg.

C) more than your true weight, mg.

D) could be more or less than your true weight, mg, depending on the value of the speed.

The answer is; C

This is due to G-force. These are the perception of the weight of an object that is accelerating against gravity. We experience 1 g force on the surface of the earth because the ground exerts an upward exertion against gravity preventing as from falling to the center of the earth.

Points A, B, and C lie along a line from left to right, respectively. Point B is at a lower electric potential than point A. Poi
djyliett [7]

Answer:

A) The particle will accelerate in the direction of point C.

Explanation:

As we know that

potential at points A, B,C and D as V_A, V_B, V_C, V_D  and it is clear from the question that

V_A>V_B>V_C

And we know that flow is always from higher to lower potential (for positive charge due to positive potential energy).

So the charge will accelerate from B toward C.

Hence, the correct option is A.

Se aplican dos fuerzas concurrentes a un objeto de 4N a la derecha y 5N a la izquierda. ¿Hacia donde se movió y con cuanta fuerz
Maksim231197 [3]

The forces move strongly towards the left by 1N

Given the following

Force towards the right = 4N

Force towards the left = 5N

Note that the force acting towards the left is negative, hence the force acting towards the left is -5N

Take the sum of force

Resultant force = -5N + 4N

Resultant force = -1N

This shows that the forces move strongly towards the left by 1N
