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) A capacitor consists of two metal surfaces separated by an electrical insulator with no electrically conductive path through
ki77a [65]

Answer:

Current flows in a resistor-capacitor circuit because of the varying electric field across the plates of a capacitor induced by an AC voltage source <em>(displacement current)</em>

Explanation:

In a capacitor, current does not flow the same way it does in a circuit, that is through conduction. This is because there is a highly resistive material in between the plates of the capacitor. Rather current flows through a phenomenon called displacement current.

Because of change in charge accumulation with time above the plates, the electric field changes causing the displacement current.

Displacement current arises due to the flow of electrons as a result of the varying magnetic fields set up on the plates of the capacitor when supplied with an AC voltage. It is important to note that a DC voltage does not induce any displacement current.

<em>Through this, phenomenon discovered by Maxwell,  current is able to flow in a resistor-capacitor circuit despite the absence of an electrically conductive path through the plates.</em>

You have family members and the relationship you observed in childhood affects the quality of your current relationships?
Ghella [55]

Answer:

Yes, the relationships you observe in childhood affects the quality of your current relationships.

Explanation:

The saying,<em> "Children see, children do,"</em> is evidently true. A child's lifestyle and future relationships are greatly affected by the kind of relationships you allow him to see. Thus, it is very important that parents become role models for their kids.

For example, when your parents handle stress by shouting at each other, then most likely you'd also handle stress the same way in the future. So,<em> it is essential that the role models will show the child how to handle stress positively.</em> The experiences that children have at a young age affects their adult life.<u> It influences them and shapes them into who they will become.</u>

If people at home show positive relationships with each other and also supports a child regarding his education, then the child will most likely set positive relationships with his peers and achieve higher degree standards.

Thus, this explains the answer.
