Given :

Whole-body dose of 8.4 mGy from gamma-rays and 1.2 mGy from 80-Kev neutrons.

To Find :

The effective dose to a worker.

Solution :

By the given information effective dose to a worker is given by :

E.D = ( 8.4 × 1.2 × 0.12 ) + ( 1.2 × 1 × 1 )

E.D = 1.2096  + 1.2

E.D = 2.4096

Therefore, the effective dose to a worker is 2.4096 .

a microwave operates at a frequency of 2400 MHZ. the height of the oven cavity is 25 cm and the base measures 30 cm by 30 cm. as
alexira [117]

Complete question is;

A microwave oven operates at a frequency of 2400 MHz. The height of the oven cavity is 25 cm and the base measures 30 cm by 30 cm. Assume that microwave energy is generated uniformly on the upper surface of the cavity and propagates directly

downward toward the base. The base is lined with a material that completely absorbs microwave energy. The total microwave energy content of the cavity is 0.50 mJ.

Answer:

Power ≈ 600,000 W

Explanation:

We are given;

Frequency; f = 2400 Hz

height of the oven cavity; h = 25 cm = 0.25 m

base area; A = 30 cm by 30 cm = 0.3m × 0.3m = 0.09 m²

total microwave energy content of the cavity; E = 0.50 mJ = 0.5 × 10^(-3) J

We want to find the power output and we know that formula for power is;

P = workdone/time taken

Formula for time here is;

t = h/c

Where c is speed of light = 3 × 10^(8) m/s

Thus;

t = 0.25/(3 × 10^(8))

t = 8.333 × 10^(-10) s

Thus;

Power = (0.5 × 10^(-3))/(8.333 × 10^(-10))

Power ≈ 600,000 W

A golf ball has a mass of 46 grams, and when struck by a driver reaches a speed of 42 m/s in a time of 0.00050 seconds. what was
Fittoniya [83]
Impulse in physics is the integral of force, F, with respect with time, t. This value is a vector quantity since force is a vector quantity as well. It can be calculated from the product of force and time. We do as follows:

Impulse = Ft
               = m(a)(t)
               = m(v/t)t
               = 0.046 (42/0.0005) (0.0005)
               = 1.932 N-s

stich3 [128]
The back-and-forth movement of electrons is called alternating current. Electrons go back and forth, the direction of their path alternates from one direction to another.

the movement of electrons in one direction is called direct current. The electrons move in a direct, single path without changing directions.

What is the displacement current in the capacitor if the potential difference across the capacitor is increasing at 500,000V/s?
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

I=2.71\times 10^{-5}\ A

Explanation:

A 6.0-cm-diameter parallel-plate capacitor has a 0.46 mm gap.  

What is the displacement current in the capacitor if the potential difference across the capacitor is increasing at 500,000V/s?

Let given is,

The diameter of a parallel plate capacitor is 6 cm or 0.06 m

Separation between plates, d = 0.046 mm

The potential difference across the capacitor is increasing at 500,000 V/s

We need to find the displacement current in the capacitor. Capacitance for parallel plate capacitor is given by :

C=\dfrac{A\epsilon_o}{d}\\\\C=\dfrac{\pi r^2\epsilon_o}{d}, r is radius

Let I is the displacement current. It is given by :

I=C\dfrac{dV}{dt}

Here, \dfrac{dV}{dt} is rate of increasing potential difference

So

I=\dfrac{\pi r^2\epsilon_o}{d}\times \dfrac{dV}{dt}\\\\I=\dfrac{\pi (0.03)^2\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}{0.46\times 10^{-3}}\times 500000\\\\I=2.71\times 10^{-5}\ A

So, the value of displacement current is 2.71\times 10^{-5}\ A.
