Is there an Advantage in limiting your exposure to radiation source to the shortest time possible? Explain

1 answer:

3 0

Radiation therapy can used in treating and destroying tumors in the human body, but it can also cause long-term damage to tissues if used incorrectly. Radiation can be used in X-rays to detect broken bones and other internal damages.

A 36.3 kg cart has a velocity of 3 m/s. How much kinetic energy does the object have?

uysha [10]

Answer:

163.35

__________________________________________________________

We are given:

Mass of the object (m) = 36.3 kg

Velocity of the object (v) = 3 m/s

Kinetic Energy of the object:

We know that:

Kinetic Energy = 1/2(mv²)

KE = 1/2(36.3)(3)² [replacing the variables with the given values]

KE = 18.15 * 9

KE = 163.35 Joules

Hence, the cart has a Kinetic Energy of 163.35 Joules

Once the genes are copied, where do they go?

Anna [14]

By copying their genomes, they retain the tool kit and at the same time generate a garage full of spare parts. Gene duplication can provide the raw material for expression changes to occur, and polyploidy itself can trigger epigenetic changes

Masses A and B rest on very light pistons that enclose a fluid.There is no friction between the pistons and the cylinders they f

RSB [31]

Answer:

D)Not enough information

Explanation:

According to Pascal's principle, the pressure exerted on the two pistons is equal:

$p_A = p_B$

Pressure is given by the ratio between force F and area A, so we can write

$\frac{F_A}{A_A}=\frac{F_B}{A_B}$

The force exerted on each piston is just equal to the weight of the corresponding mass: $F=W=mg$ , where m is the mass and g is the gravitational acceleration. So the equation becomes

$\frac{m_A g}{A_A}=\frac{m_B g}{A_B}$

Now we can rewrite the mass as the product of volume, V, times density, d:

$\frac{V_A d_A g}{A_A}=\frac{V_B d_B g}{A_B}$

We also know that $A_B = 2.0 m^2\\A_A = 1.0 m^2$

So we can further re-arrange the equation (and simplify g as well):

$\frac{V_A d_A}{1}=\frac{V_B d_B}{2}$

$\frac{d_A}{d_B}=\frac{V_B}{2V_A}$

We are also told that block B has bigger volume than block A: $V_B > V_A$ . However, this information is not enough to allow us to say if the fraction on the right is greater than 1 or smaller than 1: therefore, we cannot conclude anything about the densities of the two objects.

Explain what differentiates the Earth’s crust and lithosphere.

Allisa [31]

Answer:

What is the difference between the crust and lithosphere? The crust (whether continental or oceanic) is the thin layer of distinctive chemical composition overlying the ultramafic upper mantle. ... The lithosphere is the rigid outer layer of the Earth required by plate tectonic theory.

Hope this helps!
