Geiger-Muller tube is instruments requires you test three times the background of the work area.

<u>Explanation</u>:

These detectors are gas filled detectors and hence requires time for responding to the value. This time is taken because during this period it collects the electric charges and features of the electric circuit. It also gets stabilized during this period. This device has thumb rule i.e one must wait or hold for at the least 3 times the time constant before getting the precise and accurate reading. The time constant order is 10 seconds for the ionization chamber but for the Geiger counter it can vary from seconds to greater than 20 seconds

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

There is no short answer.

Explanation:

The chlorophyll is the pigment that gives the plants' leaves their green colors and it is also responsible for the photosynthesis process which takes place in the mitochondria. In the fall as the leaves change color, the amount of chlorophyll decreases and this impacts the mitochondria as it also decreases the amount of work the mitochondria does.

I hope this answer helps.

If a gas is moved from a large container to a small container but its temperature and number of moles remain the same, what woul
Alisiya [41]
The pressure would increase. This can be explained by the ideal gas law where for an ideal gas its pressure, volume and temperature is a function of each other ans is expressed by an equation: PV = nRT. We first need to assume that this gas given is ideal. When the temperature and the number of moles is set to a constant value while the volume decreases, we can see that from the equation pressure and volume are indirectly proportional to each other, therefore as the volume decreases, the pressure inside increases.
