Answer:

The correct answer is 0,2 rems

Explanation:

People are exposed to natural sources of radiation all the time. According to recent estimates, the average person in the United States receives an effective dose of approximately 3 mSv per year of natural radiation, which is equivalent to 0.3 rems. This amount includes cosmic radiation from outer space and is average because it varies depending on the region people are in.

The amount of radiation for a chest x-ray of an adult (0.01 rems) is approximately equal to 10 days of natural radiation to which we are all exposed every day.

Have a nice day!

What is the equilibrium concentration of ibr?
asambeis [7]
IBR is the thermal decomposition of iodine(I) bromide to produce iodine and bromine. This reaction takes place at a temperature of over 40,5°C and is written as: 

 <span>2IBr ⇄ I2 + Br2
</span>
Equilibrium is a state of dynamic balance where the ratio of the product and reactant concentrations is constant.<span> You can calculate the equilibrium concentration if you know the equilibrium constant Kc (Kc=I^2*Br^2/IBR^2) and the initial concentration for the reaction. The initial concentration is obtained from ICE Table.</span>

Two equal resistors are connected in series with a 1.50V battery. In order to keep the current at 0.030 A, the resistors much ea
AlexFokin [52]

Answer: 25 Ohms

Explanation:

From this question, the following parameters are given:

Voltage V = 1.5 v

Current I = 0.03A

From Ohm's law;

V = IR

Where R = resultant resistance of the two resistors.

Substitute V and I into the formula and make resultant R the subject of formula.

1.5 = 0.03 × R

R = 1.5/0.03

R = 50 Ohms

From the question, it is given that Thr two equal resistors are connected in series.

R = R1 + R2

But R1 = R2

50 = 2R1

R1 = 50/2

R1 = 25

R1 = R2 = 25 Ohms

Therefore, the resistors must each have a value of 25 Ohms

Answer:

Archimedes' principle states that the upward buoyant force that is exerted on a body immersed in a fluid, whether fully or partially, is equal to the weight of the fluid that the body displaces. Archimedes' principle is a law of physics fundamental to fluid mechanics. It was formulated by Archimedes of Syracuse.
