Answer:

Few millimeter thick aluminium, water, wood, acrylic glass or plastic.

Explanation:

The materials that are best for protection against beta particles are few millimeter thickness of aluminium, but for the high energy beta-particles radiations the low atomic mass materials such as plastic, wood, water and acrylic glass can be used.

These materials can also be used in personal protective equipment which includes all the clothing that can be worn to prevent any injury or illness due to the exposure to radiation.

Momentum

mava + mbvb = mava '+ mbvb'

(300 x 10)+(150 x 0) = (300 x 4.12)+(150 x vb')

3000=1236+150vb'

1764 = 150vb'

vb'=+11.76 m/s ≈ +11.8 m/s (positive sign, to the right)

A 5.0-Ω resistor and a 9.0-Ω resistor are connected in parallel. A 4.0-Ω resistor is then connected in series with this parallel
lbvjy [14]
The 4ohm resistor is not parallel to any devices, so the current through it is the same as the total current through the circuit.

Apply I = V/R
I = total current, V = battery voltage, R = total resistance

Calculate the total resistance R of the circuit first.

R will be the sum of the 4ohm resistor and the resistance of the 5&9ohm parallel resistors. To find the resistance of the pair, you apply the “sum of inverses” rule:

R = 1/(1/5 + 1/9) = 3.21ohm

Now add the 4ohm resistor:
R = 3.21 + 4 = 7.21ohm

Now let’s calculate I = V/R:
Given values:
V = 6.0V
R = 7.21ohm
Plug in and solve for I:
I = 6.0/7.21

I = 0.83A
