Answer:

Option (C) gamma

Explanation:

Gamma radiation are electromagnetic radiation of high energy produced from radioactive decay, fission and fussion. It possesses a great penetrating power and as such, it used to diagnose and also to treat certain types of cancer. Despite this positive application, gamma radiation also poses great risk to health as it may also provoke cancer, genetic mutations and even death.

A spring with spring constant 450 N/m is stretched by 12 cm. What distance is required to double the amount of potential energy
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

<em> The distance required = 16.97 cm</em>

Explanation:

Hook's Law

From Hook's law, the potential energy stored in a stretched spring

E = 1/2ke² ......................... Equation 1

making e the subject of the equation,

e = √(2E/k)........................ Equation 2

Where E = potential Energy of the stretched spring, k = elastic constant of the spring, e = extension.

Given: k = 450 N/m, e = 12 cm = 0.12 m.

E = 1/2(450)(0.12)²

E = 225(0.12)²

E = 3.24 J.

When the potential energy is doubled,

I.e E = 2×3.24

E = 6.48 J.

Substituting into equation 2,

e = √(2×6.48/450)

e = √0.0288

e = 0.1697 m

<em>e = 16.97 cm</em>

<em>Thus the distance required = 16.97 cm</em>

Hey mate......

Explanation:

This is ur answer.....

<h2><em>A. Rotation of Earth</em></h2>

<em>The moon rises in the east and sets in the west, each and every day. It has to. The rising and setting of all celestial objects is due to Earth's continuous daily spin beneath the sky</em><em>.</em>

Medical cyclotrons need efficient sources of protons to inject into their center. In one kind of ion source, hydrogen atoms (i.e
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

r=5.278\times 10^{-4}\ m

Explanation:

Given that:

  • magnetic field intensity, B=0.07\ T
  • kinetic energy of electron, KE=1.2\ eV= 1.2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ J= 1.92\times 10^{-19}\ J
  • we have mass of electron, m=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg

<em>Now, form the mathematical expression of Kinetic Energy:</em>

KE= \frac{1}{2} m.v^2

1.92\times 10^{-19}=0.5\times 9.1\times 10^{-31}\times v^2

v^2=4.2198\times 10^{11}

v=6.496\times 10^6\ m.s^{-1}

<u>from the relation of magnetic and centripetal forces we have the radius as:</u>

r=\frac{m.v}{q.B}

r=\frac{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 6.496\times 10^6 }{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.07}

r=5.278\times 10^{-4}\ m
