Answer:

<h2><em>6000 counts per second</em></h2>

Explanation:

If a sample emits 2000 counts per second when the detector is 1 meter from the sample, then;

2000 counts per second = 1 meter ... 1

In order to know the number of counts per second that would be observed when the detector is 3 meters from the sample, we will have;

x count per second = 3 meter ... 2

Solving the two expressions simultaneously for x we will have;

2000 counts per second = 1 meter

x counts per second = 3 meter

Cross multiply to get x

2000 * 3 = 1* x

6000 = x

<em></em>

<em>This shows that 6000 counts per second would be observed when the detector is 3 meters from the sample</em>

What is the resistivity of a wire of 1.3 mm diameter, 2.3 m length, and 61 ms resistance. Number Units The number of significant
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

\rho = 3.68 *10^{-8} Ω. m

Explanation:

The resistance is given as

R = \frac{\rho L}{A}

Where A IS Cross sectional area of wire= \pi r^{2}

therefore resistivity \rho can be wrtten as

\rho = \frac{\pi Rd^{2}}{4L}

Putting all value to get resistivity value\rho =\frac{\pi* 61*10^{-3}* (1.33*10^{-3})^{2}}{4*2.3}

\rho = 3.68 *10^{-8} Ω. m

l o which of the following can move from one atom to another A. protons Msideus. B. neutrons C. electrons the nucleus
Tanzania [10]
Electrons can move from one atom to another. 

When a lot of them are doing it at the same time,
you have an electric current.

We asked around here at Brainly, and nobody knows
what an "Msideus" is, but we all know that there aren't
any of them in atoms.

John walks 1.00 km north, then turns right and walks 1.00 km east. His speed is 1.50 m/s during the entire stroll.a) What is the
avanturin [10]

Answer:

(a) 1.414 km

(b) 1.06 m/s

Explanation:

(a) For John:

Distance = 1 km north and then 1 km east

Speed = 1.5 m/s

total distance traveled = 1 + 1 = 2 km = 2000 m

Time taken to travel = Distance / speed

t = 2000 / 1.5 = 1333.3 seconds

Displacement = \sqrt{1^{2}+1^{2}}=1.414 km

(b) For jane :

Time is same as john = 1333.33 second

Distance = 1.414 km = 1414 m

Speed = distance / time = 1414 / 1333.33 = 1.06 m/s
