If a material blocks gamma radiation, then it will probably protect against alpha and beta radiation. Alpha particles are large and slow-moving, thus having very little penetrating power. Beta particles are fast-moving, and can penetrate the human flesh up to 1 or 2 centimeters. Gamma particles, however, have great penetration and can easily pass through the human flesh.

Suppose your walking speed is 2m/s in a period of 1 s . What is your acceleration?
Veronika [31]

Answer:

<h2>2 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's velocity and time taken can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{v}{t}  \\

v is the velocity

t is the time taken

From the question we have

a =  \frac{2}{1}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>2 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you

Tresset [83]

Explanation:

because as you can see beaker 2 has higher temperature. As volume is directly propotional

to temperature. So the the water molecules has

more energy so that's why levels are different.
