Answer:

Beta particles and neutrons

Explanation:

Lead is not particular good for shielding beta particles and neutrons. Lead shielding is used for shielding x-rays and gamma-rays due to its high density and atomic mass.

Materials made with lead are used by people dealing with all kinds of radioactive particles to prevent radioactive poisonings.

But lead cannot effectively protect against beta particles and neutrons.

A. The patch's area in square kilometers (km²) is 1.61×10⁻⁹ km²

B. The cost of the patch to the nearest cent is 734 cents

<h3>A. How to convert 16.1 cm² to square kilometers (km²)</h3>

We can convert 16.1 cm² to km² as illustrated below:

Conversion scale

1 cm² = 1×10⁻¹⁰ km²

Therefore,

16.1 cm² = 16.1 × 1×10⁻¹⁰

16.1 cm² = 1.61×10⁻⁹ km²

Thus, 16.1 cm² is equivalent to 1.61×10⁻⁹ km²

<h3>B. How to determine the cost in cent</h3>

We'll begin by converting 16.1 cm² to in². This can be obtained as illustrated below:

1 cm² = 0.155 in²

Therefore,

16.1 cm² = 16.1 × 0.155

16.1 cm² = 2.4955 in²

Finally, we shall the determine the cost in centas fo r llow:

  • Cost per in² = $2.94 = 294 cent
  • Cost of 2.4955 in² =?

1 in² = 294 cent

Therefore,

2.4955 in² = 2.4955 × 294

2.4955 in² = 734 cents

Thus, the cost of the patch is 734 cents

TEA [102]

Answer:

A. Neither the subjects nor the researchers can bias the results.

Explanation:

As described, a double- blind study is one in which the researcher and his study does not know the person receiving the actual treatment.

Researchers can be bias in their studies as they seek to establish and fine tune results in the way the best favors them. A double-blind study helps to bridge this gap to prevent bias that might be introduced into an experimental set up or while interpreting results.
