The thickness of aluminium needed to stop the beam electrons, protons and alpha particles at the given dfferent kinetic energies is 1.5 x 10⁻¹⁴ m.
<h3>
Thickness of the aluminum</h3>
The thickness of the aluminum can be determined using from distance of closest approach of the particle.

where;
- Z is the atomic number of aluminium = 13
- e is charge
- r is distance of closest approach = thickness of aluminium
- k is Coulomb's constant = 9 x 10⁹ Nm²/C²
<h3>For 2.5 MeV electrons</h3>

<h3>For 2.5 MeV protons</h3>
Since the magnitude of charge of electron and proton is the same, at equal kinetic energy, the thickness will be same. r = 1.5 x 10⁻¹⁴ m.
<h3>For 10 MeV alpha-particles</h3>
Charge of alpah particle = 2e

Thus, the thickness of aluminium needed to stop the beam electrons, protons and alpha particles at the given dfferent kinetic energies is 1.5 x 10⁻¹⁴ m.

Answer:
1090 Steel >1040 Steel > Pure aluminium >Diamond.
Explanation:
Toughness:
Toughness can be define as the are of load -deflection diagram up to fracture point.
Modulus of toughness can be defines as the area of stress-strain diagram up to fracture point.Modulus of toughness is the property of material.
So the decreasing order of toughness can be given as follows
1090 Steel >1040 Steel > Pure aluminium >Diamond.
Answer:
D) AND gate.
Explanation:
Given that:
A certain printer requires that all of the following conditions be satisfied before it will send a HIGH to la microprocessor acknowledging that it is ready to print
These conditions are:
1. The printer's electronic circuits must be energized.
2. Paper must be loaded and ready to advance.
3. The printer must be "on line" with the microprocessor.
Now; if these conditions are met the logic gate produces a HIGH output indicating readiness to print.
The objective here is to determine the basic logic gate used in this circuit.
Now;
For NOR gate;
NOR gate gives HIGH only when all the inputs are low. but the question states it that "a HIGH is generated and applied to a 3-input logic gate". This already falsify NOR gate to be the right answer.
For NOT gate.
NOT gate operates with only one input and one output device but here; we are dealing with 3-input logic gate.
Similarly, OR gate gives output as a high if any one of the input signals is high but we need "a HIGH that is generated and applied to a 3-input logic gate".
Finally, AND gate output is HIGH only when all the input signal is HIGH and vice versa, i.e AND gate output is LOW only when all the input signal is LOW. So AND gate satisfies the given criteria that; all the three conditions must be true for the final signal to be HIGH.

Explanation:
Solution:-
- The shell and tube heat exchanger are designated by the order of tube and shell passes.
- A single tube pass: The fluid enters from inlet, exchange of heat, the fluid exits.
- A multiple tube pass: The fluid enters from inlet, exchange of heat, U bend of the fluid, exchange of heat, .... ( nth order of pass ), and then exits.
- By increasing the number of passes we have increased the "retention time" of a specific volume of tube fluid; hence, providing sufficient time for the fluid to exchange heat with the shell fluid.
- By making more U-turns we are allowing greater length for the fluid flow to develop with " constriction and turns " into turbulence. This turbulence usually at the final passes allows mixing of fluid and increases the heat transfer coefficient by:
U ∝ v^( 0.8 ) .... ( turbulence )
- The higher the velocity of the fluids the greater the heat transfer coefficient. The increase in the heat transfer coefficient will allow less heat energy carried by either of the fluids to be wasted ; hence, reduced losses.
Thereby, increases the thermal efficiency of the heat exchanger ( higher NTU units ).
