What lead does to X rays?​

Physics

Lead shielding refers to the use of lead as a form of radiation protection to shield people or objects from radiation so as to reduce the effective dose. Lead can effectively attenuate certain kinds of radiation because of its high density and high atomic number; principally, it is effective at stopping gamma rays and x-rays.

Uniformly charged ring with 180 nC/m and radius R= 58 cm. Find the magnitude of the electric field in KN/C at a point P on the a
raketka [301]

Answer:

3.135 kN/C

Explanation:

The electric field on the axis of a charged ring with radius R and distance z from the axis is E = qz/{4πε₀[√(z² + R²)]³}

Given that R = 58 cm = 0.58 m, z = 116 cm = 1.16m, q = total charge on ring = λl where λ = charge density on ring = 180 nC/m = 180 × 10⁻⁹ C/m and l = length of ring = 2πR. So q = λl = λ2πR = 180 × 10⁻⁹ C/m × 2π(0.58 m) = 208.8π × 10⁻⁹ C and ε₀ = permittivity of free space = 8.854 × 10⁻¹² F/m

So, E = qz/{4πε₀[√(z² + R²)]³}

E = 208.8π × 10⁻⁹ C × 1.16 m/{4π8.854 × 10⁻¹² F/m[√((1.16 m)² + (0.58 m)²)]³}

E = 242.208 × 10⁻⁹ Cm/{35.416 × 10⁻¹² F/m[√(1.3456 m² + 0.3364 m²)]³}

E = 242.208 × 10⁻⁹ Cm/35.416 × 10⁻¹² F/m[√(1.682 m²)]³}

E = 6.839 × 10³ Cm²/[1.297 m]³F

E = 6.839 × 10³ Cm²/2.182 m³F

E = 3.135 × 10³ V/m

E = 3.135 × 10³ N/C

E = 3.135 kN/C

A hot-water stream at 80 ℃ enters a mixing chamber with a mass flow rate of 0.5 kg/s where it is mixed with a stream of cold wat
rewona [7]

Answer:

\dot{m_{2}}=0.865 kg/s

Explanation:

\dot{m_1}= 0.5kg/s

from steam tables , at 250 kPa, and at

T₁ = 80⁰C ⇒ h₁ = 335.02 kJ/kg

T₂ = 20⁰C⇒ h₂ = 83.915 kJ/kg

T₃ = 42⁰C ⇒ h₃ = 175.90 kJ/kg

we know

\dot{m_{in}}=\dot{m_{out}}

\dot{m_{1}}+\dot{m_{2}}=\dot{m_{3}}

according to energy balance equation

\dot{m_{in}}h_{in}=\dot{m_{out}}h_{out}

\dot{m_{1}}h_{1}+\dot{m_{2}}h_{2}=\dot{m_{3}}h_{3}

\dot{m_{1}}h_{1}+\dot{m_{2}}h_{2}=(\dot{m_{1}}+\dot{m_{2}})h_{3}\\(0.5\times 335.02)+(\dot{m_{2}}\times 83.915)=(0.5+\dot{m_{2}})175.90\\\dot{m_{2}}=0.865 kg/s
