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.

What is the specific heat of an unknown substance if 2000 J of energy are required to raise the temperature of 4 grams of the su
Dmitriy789 [7]
The energy required to heat a substance is related by the formula:
Q = mCpΔT ; where Q is the energy, m is the mass of the substance, Cp is the specific heat capacity and ΔT is the change in temperature.
2000 = (4)(Cp)(5)
Cp = 100 Joules / g °C

A proton moves from a location where V = 87 V to a spot where V = -40 V. (a) What is the change in the proton's kinetic energy?
Art [367]

Answer: a) 127 eV; b) there is no change of kinetic energy.

Explanation: In order to explain this problem we have to use the change of potentail energy ( conservative field) is equal to changes in kinetic energy. So for the proton ther move to lower potential then they gain kinetic energy from the electric field.  This means the electric force do work in this trayectory and then the protons increased changes its speed.

If we replace the proton by a electron we have a very different situaction, the electrons are located in a lower potental then  they can not move to higher potential  if any  external force does work on the system.

In resumem, the electrons do not move from a point with V=87 to other point with V=-40 V. The electric force point to high potential so the electrons  can not move to lower potential region (V=-40V).

A drop of oil of volume 10m it spread out on water to make a circular firm of radius 10m calculate the tickness of the firm
Effectus [21]

Answer:

h = 3.1 cm

Explanation:

Given that,

The volume of a oil drop, V = 10 m

Radius, r = 10 m

We need to find the thickness of the film. The film is in the form of a cylinder whose volume is as follows :

V=\pi r^2 h\\\\h=\dfrac{V}{\pi r^2}\\\\h=\dfrac{10}{\pi \times 10^2}\\\\h=0.031\ m\\\\h=3.1\ cm

So, the thickness of the film is equal to 3.1 cm.

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

Time=120seconds

Explanation:

S=300m

V=2.5m/s

t=?

V=S/t

t=S/V

t=300/2.5

t=120 second
