Answer:

Mammography is the process in which low energy radiations are used to diagnose and screening. The purpose of this process is the early detection of the breast cancer. These low energy radiations may have some risks like damaging and burning of cells.  

In the current scenario, woman is apprehensive because she has read about the risks of using ionizing radiations. The radiographer should tell her the benefits of the mammography will outweigh its potential consequences. Screening, for instance, will let her know if she is suffering from breast cancer. Cancer is very dangerous disease as compare to very small burning.

In this way radiographer should handle the situation.

Peter is a middle-aged, overweight man who is trying to decrease his body circumference. How could the serving size on a nutriti
gregori [183]
One simple way to losing weight is by calorie counting. Peter can go to his nutritionist and learn just how much calories he can have as intake per day to lose weight. The nutrition label on any food item lists the calories and their serving sizes. This can be used to keep track of how much calories Peter has taken each day, so as to not go over his daily limit.

When a golf club hits a 0.0459 kg ball at rest, it exerts a 2380 N force for 0.00100 s. What is the speed of the ball afterwards
aksik [14]

Answer:

51.85m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of ball  = 0.0459kg

Force  = 2380N

Time taken  = 0.001s

Unknown:

Speed of the ball afterwards  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use Newton's second law of motion:

   F = m x \frac{v - u}{t}  

F is the force

m is the mass

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

        2380  = 0.0459 x \frac{v- 0}{0.001}  

        0.0459v  = 2.38

                   v = 51.85m/s

Two objects, one with a mass of and the other with a force of 30.0kg experience a gravitational force of attraction of 7.50 * 10
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for this is

F_g=\frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2} where F is the gravitational force, G is the gravitational constant, m1 is the mass of one object and m2 is the mass of the other object. We are looking for r, the distance between the centers of their masses.

Filling in:

7.5*10^{-8}=\frac{6.67*10^{-11}(90.0)(30.0)}{r^2} and moving things around to solve for r:

r=\sqrt{\frac{6.67*10^{-11}(90.0)(30.0)}{7.5*10^{-8}} } Doing all that and rounding to the 3 sig fig's you need gives us a distance of 1.55 m

What os the term for the smallest bit into which chemical substance can be divided and still have the properties of that substan
Ostrovityanka [42]

That's a molecule of the substance.  You can break the molecule down further, into the atoms that make it up, but those don't have the properties of the original  'compound'.

Here's an example:

-- Sodium is a soft, slippery metal, that explodes when water touches it.

-- Chlorine is a poisonous green gas.

When an atom of Sodium and an atom of Chlorine combine, they make one molecule of a substance called "Sodium Chloride".  That's SALT !  It isn't green, it isn't a gas, it isn't poisonous, it isn't soft and slippery, and it doesn't explode when water touches it.
