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

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.

A stone is thrown vertically upward with a speed of 15.5 m/s from the edge of a cliff 75.0 m high .
rjkz [21]

a) 2.64 s

We can solve this part of the problem by using the following SUVAT equation:

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s is the displacement of the stone

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

a is the acceleration

We must be careful to the signs of s, u and a. Taking upward as positive direction, we have:

- s (displacement) negative, since it is downward: so s = -75.0 m

- u (initial velocity) positive, since it is upward: +15.5 m/s

- a (acceleration) negative, since it is downward: so a= g = -9.8 m/s^2 (acceleration of gravity)

Substituting into the equation,

-75.0 = 15.5 t -4.9t^2\\4.9t^2-15.5t-75.0 = 0

Solving the equation, we have two solutions: t = -5.80 s and t = 2.84 s. Since the negative solution has no physical meaning, the stone reaches the bottom of the cliff 2.64 s later.

b) 10.4 m/s

The speed of the stone when it reaches the bottom of the cliff can be calculated by using the equation:

v=u+at

where again, we must be careful to the signs of the various quantities:

- u (initial velocity) positive, since it is upward: +15.5 m/s

- a (acceleration) negative, since it is downward: so a = g = -9.8 m/s^2

Substituting t = 2.64 s, we find the final velocity of the stone:

v = 15.5 +(-9.8)(2.64)=-10.4 m/s

where the negative sign means that the velocity is downward: so the speed is 10.4 m/s.

c) 4.11 s

In this case, we can use again the equation:

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s is the displacement of the package

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

a is the acceleration

We have:

s = -105 m (vertical displacement of the package, downward so negative)

u = +5.40 m/s (initial velocity of the package, which is the same as the helicopter, upward so positive)

a = g = -9.8 m/s^2

Substituting into the equation,

-105 = 5.40 t -4.9t^2\\4.9t^2 -5.40 t-105=0

Which gives two solutions: t = -5.21 s and t = 4.11 s. Again, we discard the first solution since it is negative, so the package reaches the ground after

t = 4.11 seconds.

Question: What is the frequency of a wave that has a wave speed of 120 m/s and a wavelength of 0.40 m?

Answer: The equation that relates frequency of a wave to a waves speed and wavelength is Speed of Wave= Frequency X Wavelength. Since you are given speed and wavelength, you plug those two known numbers into the equation, 120= Frequency X 0.40. You then divide 120 by .4 to get your frequency of 300.
