IgorLugansk [536]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct option is a

Explanation:

The alpha particle has the lowest penetrating power of the trio of alpha, beta and gamma particles and can be stopped by a sheet of paper and hence cannot penetrate a human skin. Beta particle has a higher penetrating power than alpha particle (some of it penetrates the human skin and some do not) while the gamma particle has the highest penetrating power (with all of it penetrating the human skin).

From the above description, it can be deduced that the alpha particle will stay and interact with the hand (because of its low penetrating power) as the remaining particles move through the skin.

The statement "Good locations for turbines are limited" describes a drawback to wind energy.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

Wind energy is one of the most useful and efficient renewable energy sources. But nothing is ideal in this universe and the same thing applies for wind energy also. The generation of electricity from wind energy requires setting up of turbines.

And these turbines can be set up in plane areas which is free from any disturbance except wind flow. In open area and flat plane surface only the turbines can rotate freely with the effect of wind.

But regions where the wind flow is minimum due to snow formation like the northern region of earth, the turbines cannot be set up there. So the locations for setting up of turbines are limited for good outcome in wind energy. This is one of the drawback of wind energy.

Increase in Space Suit Pressure 0.0/3.0 points (graded) If the pressure in a space suit increases, how will each of the followin
Art [367]

Answer:

Flexibility Increases

Pre-breathe time decreases

Mass of suit decreases.

Explanation:

Spacesuits are designed for space shuttles when a person goes to explore the galaxy. The spacesuits shuttle era are pressurized at 4.3 pounds per inch. The gas in the suit is 100% of oxygen and there is more oxygen to breathe when the altitude of 10,000 is reached. This will decrease the breathing time and mass of suit.
