Beams of X-rays are targeted at a cancerous tumor from outside the body

Explanation:

Mechanical waves helps to treat cancer when beams of x-rays are targeted at a cancerous tumor from outside the body. These beams are energetic and ionizing. This will cause severe destruction of the cancerous cell.

In cancer therapy, ionizing radiations are used to destroy cancerous cells in living organisms.
Controlled doses of some forms of radiations are particularly known good medical procedures for curing cancer.
Other options are not ways in which mechanical waves helps to treat cancer.

(a) At what height above Earth’s surface is the energy required to lift a satellite to that height equal to the kinetic energy r

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Gravitational Potential Energy at earth surface $U_1=\frac{GM_em}{R_e}$

Gravitational Potential Energy at height h is $U_2=\frac{GM_em}{R_e+h}$

Energy required to lift the satellite $E_1=U_1-U_2$

$E_1=\frac{GM_em}{R_e}-\frac{GM_em}{R_e+h}$

Now Energy required to orbit around the earth

$E_2=\frac{1}{2}mv_{orbit}^2=\frac{GM_2m}{2(R_e+h)}$

$\Delta E=E_1-E_2$

$\Delta E=\frac{GM_em}{R_e}-\frac{GM_em}{R_e+h}-\frac{GM_2m}{2(R_e+h)}$

$E_1=E_2$ (given)

$\frac{GM_em}{R_e}-\frac{GM_em}{R_e+h}-\frac{GM_2m}{2(R_e+h)}=0$

$\frac{1}{R_e}-\frac{3}{2(R_e+h)}=0$

$h=\frac{R_e}{2}$

$h=3.19\times 10^6\ m$

(b)For greater height $E_1$ is greater than $E_2$

thus energy to lift the satellite is more than orbiting around earth

A common pickup for an electric guitar consists of a coil of wire around a small permanent magnet, as described in Figure 25.5.

Orlov [11]

Guitar pickups are tiny coils with magnets inside them and they work via the principal of electromagnetic inductance. The metal strings vibrate within the magnetic field of the pickup which generates an electrical current. Since nylon is not a metal, it will not cause <span>fluctuations in that magnetic field. Hope this answer helps.</span>

With countercurrent flow, diffusion happened in all regions of the filter. Explain why

jeka94

Answer:

When the blood and the dialysate are flowing in the same direction, as the the dialysate and the blood move away from the region of higher concentration of the urea, to a region distant from the source, the concentration of urea in the blood stream and in the dialysis reach equilibrium and diffusion across the semipermeable membrane stops within the higher filter regions such as II, III, IV or V

However, for counter current flow, as the concentration of the urea in the blood stream becomes increasingly lesser the, it encounters increasingly unadulterated dialysate coming from the dialysate source, such that diffusion takes place in all regions of the filter
