Given what we know, we can confirm that doubling the distance between you and a source of radiation decreases your exposure by 75%.
<h3>How is distance related to radiation exposure?</h3>
- As expected, increasing the distance from the source of the radiation will reduce its negative effects.
- Counter-intuitively however, doubling the distance does not reduce by half, but rather reduces its effects by 3/4th.
- This is due to the fact that the radiation effects from the source are inversely proportional to the square of the distance.
- This causes the changes to be far greater than expected.
Therefore, given that the radiation is proportional to the square of the distance, instead of being of a more direct relation, we can confirm that when doubling the distance between yourself and the source of the radiation, you can reduce its effects by 3/4 or 75%.

And while reversals have happened more frequently in "recent" years, when ... per year, as opposed to about 10 miles per year in the early 20th century.
Explanation:
Answer:
a) P1+P2
Explanation:
The magnitude of their combined momentum is just the addition of each momentum, because in this case of inelastic collision, the kinetic energy of the two cars are both converted to some form of energy because the velocity of both cars becomes zero, i.e., V=0, making P = mv = 0, this means the magnitude of P1 + P2 = 0.
