Answer:Explained

Explanation:

Invisible gamma radiation does not transmit through Air or through contact thus standard precautions can  encompasses more than person-to-person contamination.

Some Standard Precautions are

  • Hand Hygiene

Use Alcohol based hand disinfectant and always use gloves.

  • Use Eye shields,Gowns,face shields .

A jet on an aircraft carrier can be launched from rest to 40 m/s in 2 seconds. What is the acceleration of the aircraft? Show st
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

a=20\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed, u = 0

Final speed, v = 40 m/s

Time, t = 2 s

We need to find the acceleration of the aircraft. We know that, acceleration is equal to the rate of change of velocity. So,

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{40-0}{2}\\\\=20\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the aircraft is 20\ m/s^2.

10. A 25 kg apple cart is being pushed with an applied force of 115 N. The coefficient of friction between the ground and the ca
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

1.1 m/s²

Explanation:

From the question,

F -mgμ = ma.................... Equation 1

Where F = applied force, m = mass of the apple cart, g = acceleration due to gravity, μ =  coefficient of friction., a = acceleration of the apple cart.

Given: F = 115 N, m = 25 kg,  μ  = 0.35

Constant: g = 10 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 2

115-(25×10×0.35) = 25×a

115-87.5 = 25a

25a = 27.5

a = 27.5/25

a = 1.1 m/s²

A physics professor demonstrates the Doppler effect by tying a 600 Hz sound generator to a 1.0-m-long rope and whirling it aroun
cluponka [151]

Answer:Highest frequency  =618.89Hz

Lowest frequency=582.22Hz

Explanation:

 The linear velocity of a sound generator  is related to angular velocity and is given as

Vs = rω  where

r = the radius of circular path = 1.0 m

ω is the angular velocity of the sound generator. = 100 rpm

1 rev/min = 0.10472 rad/s

100rpm =10.472 rad/ s

Vs = rω

= 1m x 10.472rad/ s=  10.472m/s

A) Highest frequency  heard by a student in the classroom = Maximum frequency. Using the Doppler effect formulae,

f max = (v/ v-vs) fs

Where , v is the speed of the sound in air at 20 degrees celcius =

343 metres per second

vs is the linear velocity of the sound generator=10.472m/s

fs is the frequency of the sound generator= 600 Hz

f max = (343/ 343 - 10.472) x 600

=343/332.528) x600

=618.89Hz

B) Lowest frequency  heard by a student in the classroom = Minimum frequency

f min = (v/ v+vs) fs

(343/ 343 + 10.472) x 600

=343/353.472) x 600

=582.22hz
