Radioactive isotopes are used in medicine to create images of internal

Physics

VMariaS [17]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct option is D) Fission

Explanation:

There are several methods through which Radioactive isotopes are created.

  1. Using a nuclear reactor that has a field of neutrons, insert a stable sample such as Lutetium-176. When it gets bombarded with neutrons, it acquires some, and fission is said to have occurred. Note that when Lutetium-176 acquires a neutron, it becomes radioactive Lu-177.
  2. Fission is also used to create Fluorine-18. To obtain the same, you need to bombard pure or enriched [^{18} O] water with ~18 MeV protons which are high energy in nature. The bombarding is achieved using a cyclotron or an accelerator.

Cheers

Steam is to be condensed on the shell side of a heat exchanger at 150 oF. Cooling water enters the tubes at 60 oF at a rate of 4
zalisa [80]

Answer:

a. 572Btu/s

b.0.1483Btu/s.R

Explanation:

a.Assume a steady state operation, KE and PE are both neglected and fluids properties are constant.

From table A-3E, the specific heat of water is c_p=1.0\ Btu/lbm.F, and the steam properties as, A-4E:

h_{fg}=1007.8Btu/lbm, s_{fg}=1.6529Btu/lbm.R

Using the energy balance for the system:

\dot E_{in}-\dot E_{out}=\bigtriangleup \dot E_{sys}=0\\\\\dot E_{in}=\dot E_{out}\\\\\dot Q_{in}+\dot m_{cw}h_1=\dot m_{cw}h_2\\\\\dot Q_{in}=\dot m_{cw}c_p(T_{out}-T_{in})\\\\\dot Q_{in}=44\times 1.0\times (73-60)=572\ Btu/s

Hence, the rate of heat transfer in the heat exchanger is 572Btu/s

b. Heat gained by the water is equal to the heat lost by the condensing steam.

-The rate of steam condensation is expressed as:

\dot m_{steam}=\frac{\dot Q}{h_{fg}}\\\\\dot m_{steam}=\frac{572}{1007.8}=0.5676lbm/s

Entropy generation in the heat exchanger could be defined using the entropy balance on the system:

\dot S_{in}-\dot S_{out}+\dot S_{gen}=\bigtriangleup \dot S_{sys}\\\\\dot m_1s_1+\dot m_3s_3-\dot m_2s_2-\dot m_4s_4+\dot S_{gen}=0\\\\\dot m_ws_1+\dot m_ss_3-\dot m_ws_2-\dot m_ss_4+\dot S_{gen}=0\\\\\dot S_{gen}=\dot m_w(s_2-s_1)+\dot m_s(s_4-s_3)\\\\\dot S_{gen}=\dot m c_p \ In(\frac{T_2}{T_1})-\dot m_ss_{fg}\\\\\\\dot S_{gen}=4.4\times 1.0\times \ In( {73+460)/(60+460)}-0.5676\times 1.6529\\\\=0.1483\ Btu/s.R

Hence,the rate of entropy generation in the heat exchanger. is 0.1483Btu/s.R

Please answer ASAP .
Arisa [49]

Answer:

Explanation:

a = gsinθ

a = 9.8sin30

a = 4.9 m/s²

v² = u² + 2as

v² = 0² + 2(4.9)(10)

v² = 98

v = √98 = 9.8994949...

v = 9.9 m/s

A car moves round a circular track of radius 0.3m of two revolution per/sec find its angular velocity.
Pie

Answer:

the angular velocity of the car is 12.568 rad/s.

Explanation:

Given;

radius of the circular track, r = 0.3 m

number of revolutions  per second made by the car, ω = 2 rev/s

The angular velocity of the car in radian per second is calculated as;

From the given data, we convert the angular velocity in revolution per second to radian per second.

\omega = 2 \ \frac{rev}{s} \times \frac{2\pi \ rad}{1 \ rev} = 4\pi \ rad/s = 12.568 \ rad/s

Therefore, the angular velocity of the car is 12.568 rad/s.

Which of the following is the smallest conceivable amount of time that could pass between a lunar eclipse and a solar eclipse .
pickupchik [31]
The time required for a moon to orbit around the earth is about 27-28 days

In order for lunar eclipse to occur the line that should be formed is:
Sun-Earth-Moon
because earth is making shade on moon

in order for solar eclipse to occur the line is now:
Sun-Moon-Earth
because moon is making a shade on earth (blocking sun = solar eclipse)

Therefore moon needs to make half of its orbit to go from behind the earth to in front of the earth.

28/2 = 14

Answer is 14
