Read the passage below about different types of radiation. Different types of radiation have different penetrating abilities. Fo

r example, gamma rays can pass through cloth and paper, but alpha particles are blocked by cloth and paper. Beta particles are blocked by aluminum foil, but gamma rays are not. However, all three types of radiation are blocked by thick concrete or lead. Now, examine a table of penetrating powers of different types of radiation. Material 1 2 3 Lead Stopped Stopped Stopped Cloth Not stopped Stopped Stopped Aluminum foil Not stopped Stopped Stopped Wood Not stopped Stopped Stopped Paper Not stopped Stopped Not stopped Thick concrete Stopped Stopped Stopped Based on the information, at which numbered spot in the table does each type of radiation belong?

<h2>Answer : 1 is gamma, 2 is alpha and 3 is beta radiations.</h2><h3>Explanation :</h3>

In the given information all the radiations were stopped by the lead block, if we assume that first radiations were gamma radiation, as they were not stopped by the cloth whereas all other radiations were stopped.

In second case, aluminum foil and wood were able to block alpha and beta radiations. Whereas, paper was used to stop the alpha particles but not the gamma and beta rays. And then a thick concrete stopped all the radiations.

This clarifies that the first radiation are gamma rays, second is alpha rays and third is beta rays.

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

the newspaper one is a chemical change because the chemicals in the paper have reacted with something and turned a different color. the wax one is a physical change because it is a change in the phase of matter, which is always a physical change (still the same substance chemically)

Your teacher asks you to design an experiment that shows how plants respond to changes in their environment. You have two identi
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

1.  Make observations.

Determine whether the plant grown under the white light bulb or the plant grown under the red light bulb grew better.

Observations are anything we notice which lead to a question in our mind.

2. Ask a question.

Do plants grow as well under a different color of light?

As this is a question being asked, hence it will be the question for the scientific method of research.

3. Test the hypothesis.

Put one plant under a white light bulb, and  place the other plant under a red light bulb.  Measure the growth of the two plants.

To test the hypothesis, experiments are performed. This is the experiment.

4. Analyze the results, and make a conclusion.

Plants grow well under sunlight or a light bulb  with a hot, white light.

After the experiments, the results are compiled and a conclusion is drawn.

5. Test or modify.

If you observe no change, repeat the experiment with different colors of light bulbs. If there is a change, repeat the experiment for one or two more trials to ensure that the color of the light bulb contributes to the change.

If our hypothesis does not come out to be true, then another hypothesis can be generated and tests be done for it.
