Answer:

GAMMA RAYS:

A photon emitted spontaneously by a radioactive substance also : a photon of higher energy than that of an X-ray.

USES OF GAMMA RAYS:

Gamma rays are used in medicine (radiotherapy), industry (sterilization and disinfection), and the nuclear industry. Shielding against gamma rays is essential because they can cause diseases to skin or blood, eye disorders, and cancers.

A car drives over a hilltop that has a radius of curvature 120 m at the top of the hill. at what speed would the car be travelin

FinnZ [79.3K]

The speed of a car travelling over a hill that has a radius of curvature should not exceed a certain speed other it will topple. This speed is related to the radius of curvature and the gravitational acceleration as shown below:

V^2 = Rg, where V = maximum speed, R = Radius of curvature, g = gravitational acceleration.

Substituting;
V = Sqrt (Rg) = Sqrt (120*9.81) = 34.31 m/s

An object moving north with an initial velocity of 14m/s accelerates 5m/s squared for 20 seconds. What is the final velocity of

Gemiola [76]

Since it moves 5 m/s faster every second, after 20 seconds it's moving 100 m/s faster than when it started speeding up.

If it was moving at 14 m/s when the acceleration began, it's moving at 114 m/s at the end of the 20 seconds. Its velocity is <em>114 m/s North.</em>

That's 255 mph !

consider a charge of -15.0 mCmoving to the right a 2.00x10^6 m/s in a mganetic field of .0300 T pointing upwards. What is the ma

77julia77 [94]

Answer:

a = 1.13×10^-8 m/s²

Explanation:

$f = ma = qvb \\ a = \frac{qvb}{m}$

q = 15×10^-3 C

v = 2×10^6 m/s

B = 0.03 T

m = 8.00 x10^10 kg

a = 900/8 x10^10

a = 1.13×10^-8 m/s²

How many seconds will elapse between seeing lightning and hearing the thunder if the lightning strikes 1mi (5280 ft) away and th

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

t = 4.58 s

Explanation:

In this problem, we need to find the time elapse between seeing lightning and hearing the thunder if the lightning strikes 1mi (5280 ft) away and the air temperature is 90.0°F.

T = 90.0°F = 32.2 °C

The speed of sound at temperature T is given by :

v = (331.3 +0.6T)

Put T = 32.2°C

So,

v = (331.3 +0.6(32.2))

= 350.62 m/s

We have, distance, d = 1 mile = 1609.34

So,

$t=\dfrac{d}{v}\\\\t=4.58\ s$

So, the required time is equal to 4.58 seconds.
