In the diagnostic radiology energy range (which includes mammography) from 23 to 150 kVp, which of the following tissues possess

es the greatest ability to absorb radiant energy through the process of photoelectric absorption?
Physics
1 answer:
Semmy [17]3 years ago

Answer:

Bone

Explanation:

Diagnostic radiology include the use of non-invasive imaging scans to diagnose a patient.

The voltages used in diagnostic tubes range from roughly 20 kV to 150 kV and thus the highest energies of the X-ray photons range from roughly 20 keV to 150 keV.

The tests and equipment used sometimes involves low doses of radiation to create highly detailed images of an area.

Ted Williams hits a baseball with an initial velocity of 120 miles per hour (176 ft/s) at an angle of θ = 35 degrees to the hori
lys-0071 [83]

Answer: the maximum heigth of the stadium at ist back wall is 151.32 ft

Explanation:

1. use the position (x) equation in parobolic movement to find the time (t)

565 ft = [frac{176 ft}{1 s\\}[/tex] * cos (35°)  * t

t= 3.92 s

2. use the position (y) equation in parabolic movement to find de maximun heigth  the ball reaches at 565 ft from the home plate.

y= [[frac{176 ft}{1 s\\}[/tex] * sen (35°) * 3.92 s] - \frac{32.2 ft/s^{2} *3.92 s^{2}  }{2}

y= 148.32 ft

3. finally add the 3 ft that exist between the home plate and the ball

148.32 ft + 3 ft = 151.32

A 1.20-m cylindrical rod of diameter 0.570 cm is connected to a power supply that maintains a constant potential difference of 1
nasty-shy [4]

(a) 1.72\cdot 10^{-5} \Omega m

The resistance of the rod is given by:

R=\rho \frac{L}{A} (1)

where

\rho is the material resistivity

L = 1.20 m is the length of the rod

A is the cross-sectional area

The radius of the rod is half the diameter: r=0.570 cm/2=0.285 cm=2.85\cdot 10^{-3} m, so the cross-sectional area is

A=\pi r^2=\pi (2.85\cdot 10^{-3} m)^2=2.55\cdot 10^{-5} m^2

The resistance at 20°C can be found by using Ohm's law. In fact, we know:

- The voltage at this temperature is V = 15.0 V

- The current at this temperature is I = 18.6 A

So, the resistance is

R=\frac{V}{I}=\frac{15.0 V}{18.6 A}=0.81 \Omega

And now we can re-arrange the eq.(1) to solve for the resistivity:

\rho=\frac{RA}{L}=\frac{(0.81 \Omega)(2.55\cdot 10^{-5} m^2)}{1.20 m}=1.72\cdot 10^{-5} \Omega m

(b) 8.57\cdot 10^{-4} /{\circ}C

First of all, let's find the new resistance of the wire at 92.0°C. In this case, the current is

I = 17.5 A

So the resistance is

R=\frac{V}{I}=\frac{15.0 V}{17.5 A}=0.86 \Omega

The equation that gives the change in resistance as a function of the temperature is

R(T)=R_0 (1+\alpha(T-T_0))

where

R(T)=0.86 \Omega is the resistance at the new temperature (92.0°C)

R_0=0.81 \Omega is the resistance at the original temperature (20.0°C)

\alpha is the temperature coefficient of resistivity

T=92^{\circ}C

T_0 = 20^{\circ}

Solving the formula for \alpha, we find

\alpha=\frac{\frac{R(T)}{R_0}-1}{T-T_0}=\frac{\frac{0.86 \Omega}{0.81 \Omega}-1}{92C-20C}=8.57\cdot 10^{-4} /{\circ}C
