QUESTION: A study group of students is reviewing claims in an article that gamma rays are among the most dangerous type of elect

romagnetic radiation, because of the high energy of the waves. How should the students decide if this claim is reliable? (2 points) (A)They should look at what country the study was done in. (B)They should see if there are any sources of bias. (C)They should vote on it. (D)They should create an online poll.

B

Bias is an inclination towards one way of thinking due to inherent factors in our environment, such as how one was brought up.

Explanation:

In science, biases, conscious or unconscious, tend to make experiments’ results to incline in particular way rather than being impartial. Peer- review of scientific journals by the scientific community is meant to be a quality assurance measure to detect such biases. The students should check reviews of the scientific community on the article and see if any biases have been pointed out.  Probably the institution that the scientist works for is in competition with another institution that deals with gamma rays.

The correct answer is (B)They should see if there are any sources of bias.

Explanation:

The information in any source can be considered reliable if the information is objective and supported with evidence. This implies, there are no sources of bias such as personal interest or stereotypes that can influence the accuracy of the information. Also, it is recommended the author is an expert in the field, and he/she provides evidence.

According to this, the best way for the group of students to decide if the claim of the article is reliable is to analyze if there are any sources of bias because if the information is influenced by interests, belief, etc (biased information) then the claim is likely to be unreliable.

6. An article, which costs Rs. 850 is sold at a profit of 6%.
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

b) Rs.901  is the selling price

Explanation:

selling price = cost price+profit percentage/100 x cost price

cost price = 850

profit percentage = 6%

selling price = 850+6/100 x 850 = 901

soln 2

                              if 100 % = 850

therefore what about 106% = ?

106 x 805/100 = 901

ans = 901

if you need any clarification or more explanation pls do mention on the comment section.i would like to help more

Hope this helps and if it does mark as branliest answer thx

A motorcycle starts from rest and has a constant acceleration. In a time interval t, it undergoes a displacement x and attains a
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

√(6ax)

Explanation:

Hi!

The question states that during a time t the motorcyle underwent a displacement x at constant acceleration a starting from rest, mathematically we can express it as:

x=(1/2)at^2

Then the we need to find the time t' for which the displacement is 3x

3x=(1/2)a(t')^2

Solving for t':

t'=√(6x/a)

Now, the velocity of the motorcycle as a function of time is:

v(t)=a*t

Evaluating at t=t'

v(t')=a*√(6x/a)=√(6*x*a)

Which is the final velocity

Have a nice day!

To initiate a nuclear reaction, an experimental nuclear physicist wants to shoot a proton into a 5.50-fm-diameter 12C nucleus. T
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

kinetic energy required = 1.80 MeV

= 1.8 x 10⁶ x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

= 2.88 x 10⁻¹³ J

If v be the velocity of proton

1/2 x mass of proton x v² = 2.88 x 10⁻¹³

= .5 x 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ x v² = 2.88 x 10⁻¹³

v² = 3.45 x 10¹⁴

v = 1.86 x 10⁷ m /s

If V be the potential difference required

V x e = kinetic energy . where e is charge on proton .

V x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ = 2.88 x 10⁻¹³

V = 1.8 x 10⁶ volt .

Why do we see black? Is light being admitted reflected or absorbed or transmitted
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:When white light strikes an object, each individual frequency of light is transmitted, reflected, or absorbed, depending on the properties of the surface molecules. If all frequencies are absorbed by the object, then it appears black. If all frequencies are reflected, then it appears white.
