Answer:

d) Sofia.

Explanation:

If they walked down a straight road, their displacement will be 4 miles. However, their position depends on the origin of a coordinate system which could be located anywhere. If the origin of the coordinate system was at the starting point of their walk, then and only then, you can say that their position is also 4 miles.

Each year, an average person in the United States is exposed to a radiation level of _____.
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is 0,2 rems

Explanation:

People are exposed to natural sources of radiation all the time. According to recent estimates, the average person in the United States receives an effective dose of approximately 3 mSv per year of natural radiation, which is equivalent to 0.3 rems. This amount includes cosmic radiation from outer space and is average because it varies depending on the region people are in.

The amount of radiation for a chest x-ray of an adult (0.01 rems) is approximately equal to 10 days of natural radiation to which we are all exposed every day.

Have a nice day!

It's kinda like that one song "100 jugs of milk" or whatever it's called. Each atom passes the atom next to it an electron.
