The radiation detector that uses detection of flashes of light is a _____
Maslowich

The radiation detector that uses detection of flashes of light is a <u>scintillation counter.</u>

<h3>What is a scintillation counter?</h3>

A scintillation counter detects and measures ionizing radiation by using the excitation action of incoming radiation on a scintillating substance and detecting the light pulses that arise.

One of the most critical considerations for anyone who operate with or near radiation is being aware of the amounts of radiation present.

This is generally performed through the use of several types of radiation detectors.

The radiation detector that uses detection of flashes of light is a scintillation counter.

Hence,scintillation counter is the correct answer.

To learn more about the scintillation counter, refer:

If it takes a P wave five minutes to travel from the epicenter to a seismic station, approximately how long will it take an S wa
jok3333 [9.3K]

It take approximately 9 minutes for an S wave to travel that same distance that P wave travel in 5 minutes.

<h3>What is P wave?</h3>

P waves, are the first waves to arrive at a seismograph.

<h3>What is S wave?</h3>

An S wave, or shear wave, is a seismic body wave that shakes the ground back and forth perpendicular to the direction the wave is moving.

S-wave is about 1.73 times slower than the P-wave.

Toy car W travels across a horizontal surface with an acceleration of aw after starting from rest. Toy car Z travels across the
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

x = ½ aw t²

x = d − ½ az t²

Explanation:

The position of each car at time t is:

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

For car W:

x = 0 + (0) t + ½ aw t²

x = ½ aw t²

For car Z:

x = d + (0) t + ½ (-az) t²

x = d − ½ az t²

Solving the system of equations for x will give us the location the cars meet (relative to car W's starting point).
