Why is it important that radioisotopes used in diagnostic tests have short half-lives? 20 A) These radioisotopes have a greater
LiRa [457]

Answer:

Option B) This minimizes the harmful side effects of the radiations

Explanation:

Half-life is the time taken for the decay of an radio-active atom in which it disintegrates such that it becomes half of its value at the beginning.... The nuclei should be in active mode for a longer duration sufficient for the treatment of the condition but these nuclei should have a sufficient  shorter half life so that they don't get enough time to cause any  damage to the health of the person other than treating the cause.

A shorter half life gives the assurance that the radiation after the treatment will leave the body without getting accumulated and cause harm to the body cells and other organs.

If, while standing on the bank of a stream, you wished to spear a fish swimming in the water out in front of you, would you aim
Serggg [28]

Answer:

<em>a) below the observed position</em>

<em>b) directly at the observed position</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

If I'm standing on the bank of a stream, and I wish to spear a fish swimming in the water out in front of me, I would aim below the observed fish to make a direct hit. This is because the phenomenon of refraction of light in water causes the light coming from the fish is refract away from the normal as it passes  into the air and into my eyes.

If I'm to zap the fish with a taser, I would aim directly at the observed fish because the laser (a form of concentrated light waves) will refract into the water, taking the same path the light from the fish took to get to my eyes.

A central air conditioner in a typical American home operates on a 220-V circuit and draws about 15 A
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Find answers below.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Voltage = 220V

Current = 15 A

a. To find the power;

Power = current * voltage

Power = 15 * 220

Power = 3300 Watts

b. To find the energy;

Time = 8 hours = 60 * 60 * 8 = 28800 seconds

Energy = power * time

Energy = 3300 * 8

Energy = 26400

Energy = 26.4 Kwh

c. Cost = 13 cents

Cost = 13 * 31 * 26.4

Cost = 106392 cents
