After a long night of cramming for a test, your college room-mate hits his head forcefully against the wall of your room in desp

air. According to Newton’s 3rd Law, as he exerts a force against the wall, there must be an equal and opposite force. How does that opposite force show itself in this case?

Answer: the wall contracts the force exerted by his head. The wall produces the opposite force which is equal to the force his head bangs the wall with.

Explanation: if his head exerts a much greater force than the wall can counteract the wall will be destroyed, if the wall exerts a much greater force than his head exerts he will be pushed far back and might even suffer a broken head.

The wall in this case provides the opposite reactive force.

Two different sources of radiation give the same dose equivalent in Sv. Does this mean that the radiation from each source has t
Alisiya [41]

The product of the dosage Gy and relative biological efficiency yields a radiation dose equivalent Sv (RBE).

Sv =dose in Gy * RBE Sv=dose in GyRBE

The quantity of ionising energy absorbed by 1 text kg1 kg of tissue is defined as a radiation dose Gy. While RBE is a measure of a specific dose's biological effect relative to the biological effect of an equal quantity of X rays.

<h3>What is radiation?</h3>

Radiation is energy that moves through space at the speed of light from a source. This energy is coupled with an electric and magnetic field, and it exhibits wave-like qualities. Radiation is sometimes known as "electromagnetic waves."

Nature has a diverse variety of electromagnetic radiation. One example is visible light.

X-rays and gamma rays are extremely energetic. They may take electrons from atoms when they engage with them, causing the atom to become ionised.

When NASA was communicating with astronauts on the Moon, the time from sending on the Earth to receiving on the moon was 1.33 s.
frez [133]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the kinematic equations of movement description, which determine the velocity, such as the displacement of a particle as a function of time, that is to say

v = \frac{x}{t}\rightarrow x = v*t

Where,

x = Displacement

v = Velocity

t = Time

Our values are given as,

v=3*10^8m/s

t = 1.33 s

Replacing we have that,

x=v*t

x=(3*10^8)(1.33)

x = 399'000.000m

Therefore the distance from Earth to the Moon is 399.000 km
