Answer:

(C) Contact

Explanation:

Radiation Poisoning is a horrific disease that is transmitted in many ways. After a nuclear accident radiation is released into the atmosphere becoming airborne and affecting everyone that breathes it in. It is also transmitted in droplets from acid rainfall. Once the gamma radiation penetrates the body of a person it can contaminate other people by having skin to skin contact with the person that is contaminated. Therefore it can be prevented by having precaution of direct contact with anyone contaminated.

If an object is conductive what do you know it can do?
fredd [130]

Explanation:

some objects that are conduct :Metals conduct electricity, so if there is just the symbol of a metal, eg Mg(s), then it will conduct, even in the solid or liquid state. 2. Ionic compounds conduct when they are dissolved in water, or are melted.

what can it do ?:

A conductor is a material which electricity, heat or sound can flow through. An electrical conductor conducts electricity. ... This means that they make it very hard for electricity to flow through them. A material that stops electric current is called an insulator (electricity).

An emf source with a magnitude of E = 120.0 V, a resistor with a resistance of R = 89.0 Ω, and a capacitor with a capacitance of
VikaD [51]

For an emf source with a magnitude of E = 120.0 V, is mathematically given as

Q=136.63uC

<h3>What is the magnitude of the charge on each plate of the capacitor?</h3>

Parameters

  • E = 120.0 V
  • R = 89.0 Ω
  • C = 6.00 μF

Generally, the equation for voltage on the resistor is mathematically given as

Vr=IR

Therefore

Vr=71*0.95

Vr=67.45V

voltage on capacitor

Vc=120-67.45

Vc=52.55V

In conclusion,

Q=CVc

Therefore

Q=52.55*2.60

Q=136.63uC
