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 parallel-plate capacitor in air has circular plates of radius 2.8 cm separated by 1.1 mm. Charge is flowing onto the upper pla

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

The time rate of change of the electric field between the plates is $\frac{E }{t} = 2.29 *10^{14} \ N \cdot C \cdot s^{-1}$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The radius is $r = 2.8 \ cm = 0.028 \ m$

The distance of separation is $d = 1.1 \ mm = 0.0011 \ m$

The current is $I = 5 \ A$

Generally the electric field generated is mathematically represented as

$E = \frac{q }{ \pi * r^2 \epsilon_o }$

Where $\epsilon_o$ is the permitivity of free space with a value

$\epsilon_o = 8.85*10^{-12 }\ m^{-3} \cdot kg^{-1}\cdot s^4 \cdot A^2$

So the time rate of change of the electric field between the plates is mathematically represented as

$\frac{E }{t} = \frac{q}{t} * \frac{1 }{ \pi * r^2 \epsilon_o }$

But $\frac{q}{t } = I$

$\frac{E }{t} = * \frac{I }{ \pi * r^2 \epsilon_o }$

substituting values

$\frac{E }{t} = * \frac{5 }{3.142 * (0.028)^2 * 8.85 *10^{-12} }$

$\frac{E }{t} = 2.29 *10^{14} \ N \cdot C \cdot s^{-1}$

At what altitude above the earth's surface would the acceleration due to gravity be 4.9 m/s^2? Assume the mean radius of the ear

Mandarinka [93]

We apply the gravity calculation expressed in the formula: g=GM/r2
where G is the gravitational constant, m is the mass and r is the radius
r=√GM/g
(1) Radius = √6.674e-11*5.972e24/8 = 7058 kms Earth radius or surface of earth from center of earth= 6400 kmsSo r= 658 kms from surface of earth.
Gravity 8m/s2 will be at 658 kms from surface of earth.
(2) half gravity= 9.8/2= 4.9 m/s2 Radius=√6.674e-11*5.972e24/4.9 = 9019 kms Half Gravity will exist at 9019-6400= 2619 kms from surface of earth.
