Well, those are good ones. Now how about a <u><em>thermometer</em></u> to <em>measure the temperature</em> ?
Answer:
The horizontal component of the truck's velocity is: 23.70 m/s
The vertical component of the truck's velocity is: 3.13 m/s
Explanation:
You have to apply trigonometric identities for a right triangle (because the ramp can be seen as a right triangle where the speed is the hypotenuse), in order to obtain the components of the velocity vector.
The identities are:
Cosα= 
Senα= 
Where H is the hypotenuse, α is the angle, CA is the adjacent cathetus and CO is the opposite cathetus
The horizontal component of the truck's velocity is:
Let Vx represent it.
In this case, CA=Vx, H=24 and α=7.5 degrees
Vx=(24)Cos(7.5)
Vx=23.79 m/s
The vertical component of the truck's velocity is:
Let Vy represent it.
In this case, CO=Vy, H=24 and α=7.5 degrees
Vy=(24)Sen(7.5)
Vy=3.13 m/s
Gamma radiation could be used to sterilize plastic petri plates in a plastic wrapper.
Answer: Option E
<u>Explanation:
</u>
It is known that radioactive radiations have greater ionizing powers compared to other electromagnetic radiations. Among the radioactive radiations, gamma rays are the most ionizing radiation.
So they are widely used in sterilizing process. As the penetration power of gamma is more compared to alpha and beta, in order to kill microorganisms gamma radiations are used.
When plastic petri plates wrapped with plastic are bombarded or sterilizing with gamma rays, the rays will ionise the micro-organism. Thus mutilating their DNA and preventing their reproduction.
