Answer:

Gamma rays

Explanation:

The penetrating power of gamma rays is maximum as compared to beta and alpha rays. Gamma rays are nothing but the photons i.e. the packets of energy. Their energy range lies from kilo electron volts to 8 mega electron volts. It is emitted during the decay of many radioactive isotopes, such as U-238 and I-131. A large amount of energy is produced in decay of uranium 238.

Hence, the correct option is " gamma rays ".

A bicycle rider traveling east at 10 km/hr sees a blue car pass her appearing to travel west at 50 km/hr. What is the blue car's
BigorU [14]

Answer:

v_{bR} = 25 km/h towards west

Explanation:

As we know that the speed of the blue car as appear to the bicycle rider is given as

v_{bc} = 50 km/h towards west

also it is given that bicycle is moving at speed of 10 km/h towards East

so here we have

v_{bc} = v_b - v_c

so we have

v_b = v_{bc} + v_c

v_b = -50 + 10 = 40 km/h towards west

now speed of the red car is given as 15 km/h towards west

so here the relative speed of blue car with respect to red car is given as

v_{bR} = v_b - v_R

v_{bR} = 40 - 15 = 25 km/h towards west
