Answer:

Alpha is the least penetrating radiation listed below.

Gamma is the most penetrating radiation in the given list.

These rays can be used to detect cancer, sterilizing the medical instrument, smoke detector, etc.

Radiation emitted from the radioactive elements also have very harmful. They affect the living being a lot. Waste from the nuclear reactor also contains harmful radiation which causes Land pollution if not disposed of properly.

Katelyn (55 kg) is practicing a drop jump in the biomechanics lab. She steps off a plyometrics box, lands on the force plate, an
suter [353]

Answer:

J = 357.5 kg*m/s

Explanation:

  • The impulse exerted on Katelyn when she was on the force plate, is equal to the change in her momentum, according to Newton's 2nd Law.
  • Assuming as the positive direction the upward direction (coincident with the positive y-axis) we can express the initial momentum as follows:

       p_{o} = m*v_{o} = 55 kg * (-3.0 m/s)  (1)

  • By the same token, the final momentum is as follows:

       p_{f} = m*v_{f} = 55 kg * (3.5 m/s)  (2)

  • As we have already said, the impulse J is just equal to the change in momentum, i.e., the difference between (2) and (1):

      J = p_{f} - p_{o} = m* (v_{f} -v_{o}) = 55 kg* (3.5m/s- (-3.0m/s)) = 357.5 kg*m/s (3)
