Answer:

Skin burns and increasing effect of cancer.

Explanation:

Ionizing radiations are majorly produced during radioactivity process. Radioactivity is the disintegration of radioactive elements to produce energy. This energy produced are in form of ionizing radiations. Most elements that undergoes radioactivity are unstable and they produce some electromagnetic radiations like gamma rays, alpha rays and beta rays. Some of this radiations are harmful to the health and serves as threats and hazards to humans. Some of this hazards caused by this radiations includes skin burns and cancer which are due to our exposure to sources of ionizing radiations some of which are x-rays in hospitals, soil and vegetation.

1)Calculate the mass of a girl that has a weight of 113 Newtons.
Blababa [14]

Answer:

Explanation:We should know that weight = mass * gravity.

That is weight equals mass times gravity.

Gravity is a force of attraction between any two bodies in the universe. It is directly proportional to product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

Gravity is generally measured in terms of acceleration due to gravity, denoted as g. For Earth it is, 9.8 m/s². And for moon, it is about 1.62 m/s².

On Earth, your weight is 70 kg = W

W = mass x 9.8

70 = mass x 9.8

Your mass is 70/ 9.8

i.e approximately 7.14

Weight at the Moon, W' = 7.14 x 1.62

Hence, your weight on the surface of the moon is just 11.56 kg.

Congratulations, you've lost about 58.14 kilograms without any hard exercise. And you're as light as a Sweedish Vallhund! Cheers!

kolbaska11 [484]

Index fossils are used to determine the relative ages of rock and fossils and are also used to define the boundaries between geologic periods.

<u>Option: A</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The fossils which are recognized as fossils guides or indicator fossils are used to classify and recognize geological or faunal periods, termed as index fossils. It must be of short vertical reach, wide geographic distribution and swift patterns in evolution. It helps to assess the rock layers ' age and helps to date other fossils found close and around them. For an instance, Ammonites were abundant in the Mesozoic period between 245 to 65 mya, they have not been found after the Cretaceous era, as they became endangered during the K-T extinction (65 mya).

-Boston tea party-
lisov135 [29]

Answer: The Boston Tea Party was a political protest that occurred on December 16, 1773, at Griffin’s Wharf in Boston, Massachusetts. American colonists, frustrated and angry at Britain for imposing “taxation without representation,” dumped 342 chests of tea, imported by the British East India Company into the harbor. The event was the first major act of defiance to British rule over the colonists. It showed Great Britain that Americans wouldn’t take taxation and tyranny sitting down, and rallied American patriots across the 13 colonies to fight for independence.
