What is scatter radiation

Biology
1 answer:
Arturiano [62]3 years ago
8 0

Scatter Radiation is a type of secondary radiation that occurs when the useful beam intercepts any object, causing some x-rays to be scattered. During an x-ray or fluoroscopic exam the patient is the most significant source of scatter radiation.Scatter radiation occurs as a result of the targeted beam striking objects, such as the patient's body, and reflecting a more harmful secondary radiation in all directions. One method of reducing the medical staff's exposure to this harmful scatter radiation is the implementation Infab's new Scatter Armor Shields.

I hope this helped :)

Explain why plants along the road often die after the road is sprayed with a salt solution to melt ice
vovangra [49]

Explanation:

The salt solution is meant to lower the ice melting point hence keep most of the water from turning into ice even at zero degrees temperatures. The salts are dissolved in the water to form a salty solution that percolates the ground and reach plant roots. Because the salty water is hypertonic (more concentrated) to the cell cytoplasm of the plant roots, water is drawn from the plant by osmosis. This is the reversal of normal plant root absorption of water from the soil. This causes the plant root to wither and subsequently the whole plant to die. Remember in osmosis, water moves from the less concentrated solution to the more concentrated solution through a semipermeable membrane.
