Answer:

4) Long exposure to low-energy radiation could give the same dose as a short burst of high-energy radiation.

Explanation:

When it comes to ionizing radiation, absorption should be kept as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA). This can be achieved by control of time spent in the vicinity of the source, the distance to the source and the use of personal protective equipment (PPE).

A short burst of high-energy radiation releases or generates a high radiation dose in a short time frame. This can also be achieved due to long exposure to low-energy radiation, which results into the gradual accumulation of the dose.

Answer:

1000.66m

Explanation:

$l 2 = l1(1 + \alpha \: \times change \:in \: temperature)$

L1=1000m

Temperature 1=-20

L2=?

Temperature 2=40

Temperature difference=40-(-20)

40+20=60

inserting into the formula

l2=l1(1+α×changeintemperature)

L2=1000(1+11×10^-6 ×60)

L2=1000(1+6.6×10^-4)

L2=1000(1.000.66)

L2=1000.66m

Jason rides his bicycle 1,200 meters east to the grocery store. He then turns around and travels 760 meters west to meet his fri

Since displacement is a vector quantity, it depends on direction as well as magnitude.

Taking displacement towards east as positive and towards west as negative,
Total displacement = 1200 + (-760) = 440 meters.

Since distance is a scalar quantity, it depends only upon magnitude.
Total distance = 1200 + 760 = 1960 meters.

Hope this cleared your doubt, feel free to ask any questions regarding this and have a nice day ahead! :)
