Radioactive iodine (radioiodine) is given to patients with some forms of thyroid cancer in order to destroy the cancer cells. 13

11 has a half-life of 8
days. Women who have been treated with 1311 are advised to not become pregnant for 180 days (approximately 6 months) to avoid the
radioactive contamination of a developing fetus.
If a woman has been given a dose of 10 mCi (millicurie, a measurement of radiation), how much 1311 will still be in her system when she can
safely become pregnant?
O 22.5 x 10-6 mc
O 3.125% of the original isotope
O 1.7 x 10-6 ma
O There will be no iodine-131 left in her system after 180 days.

A toy car is moving across a table with a velocity of 7.0 m/s and drives off the end. The table is 1.8 m tall. How long will the

KatRina [158]

Answer:

Option D - 0.2 s

Explanation:

We are given;

Initial velocity; u = 7 m/s

Height of table; h = 1.8m

Now,since we want to find the time the car spent in the air, we will simply use one of Newton's equation of motion.

Thus;

h = ut + ½gt²

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

1.8 = 7t + ½(9.8)t²

4.9t² + 7t - 1.8 = 0

Using quadratic formula to find the roots of the equation gives us;

t = -1.65 or 0.22

We can't have negative t value, thus we will pick the positive one.

So, t = 0.22 s

This is approximately 0.2 s

series RC circuit is built with a 15 kΩ resistor and a parallel-plate capacitor with 18-cm-diameter electrodes. A 18 V, 36 kHz s

andre [41]

Answer:

$d=1.84\ mm$

Explanation:

<u>Capacitance</u>

A two parallel-plate capacitor has a capacitance of

$\displaystyle C=\frac{\epsilon_o A}{d}$

where

$\epsilon_o=8.85\cdot 10^{-12}\ F/m$

A = area of the plates = $\pi r^2$

d = separation of the plates

$\displaystyle d=\frac{\epsilon_o A}{C}=\frac{\epsilon_o \pi r^2}{C}$

We need to compute C. We'll use the circuit parameters for that. The reactance of a capacitor is given by

$\displaystyle X_c=\frac{1}{wC}$

where w is the angular frequency

$w=2\pi f=2\pi \cdot 36000=226194.67\ rad/s$

Solving for C

$\displaystyle C=\frac{1}{wX_c}$

The reactance can be found knowing the total impedance of the circuit:

$Z^2=R^2+X_c^2$

Where R is the resistance, $R=15 K\Omega=15000\Omega$ . Solving for Xc

$X_c^2=Z^2-R^2$

The magnitude of the impedance is computed as the ratio of the rms voltage and rms current

$\displaystyle Z=\frac{V}{I}$

The rms current is the peak current Ip divided by $\sqrt{2}$ , thus

$\displaystyle Z=\frac{\sqrt{2}V}{I_p}$

$I_p=0.65\ mA/1000=0.00065\ A$

Now collect formulas

$\displaystyle X_c^2=Z^2-R^2=\left(\frac{\sqrt{2}V}{I_p}\right)^2-R^2$

Or, equivalently

$\displaystyle X_c=\sqrt{\frac{2V^2}{I_p^2}-R^2}$

$\displaystyle X_c=\sqrt{\frac{2\cdot 18^2}{0.00065^2}-15000^2}$

$X_c=36176.34\ \Omega$

The capacitance is now

$\displaystyle C=\frac{1}{226194.67\cdot 36176.34}=1.22\cdot 10^{-10}\ F$

The radius of the plates is

$r=18\ cm/2=9 \ cm = 0.09 \ m$

The separation between the plates is

$\displaystyle d=\frac{8.85\cdot 10^{-12} \cdot \pi\cdot 0.09^2}{1.22\cdot 10^{-10}}$

$d=0.00184\ m$

$\boxed{d=1.84\ mm}$

You are throwing a stone straight-up in the absence of air friction. The stone is caught at the same height from which it was th

balu736 [363]

Answer:

A. True

Explanation:

When a stone is thrown straight-up, it has an initial velocity which decreases gradually as the stone move to maximum height due to constant acceleration due to gravity acting downward on the stone, at the maximum height the final velocity of the stone is zero. As the stone descends the velocity starts to increase and becomes maximum before it hits the ground.

Height of the motion is given by;

$H = \frac{u^2}{2g}$

g is acceleration due to gravity which is constant

H is height traveled

u is the speed of throw, which determines the value of height traveled.

Therefore, when the stone is caught at the same height from which it was thrown in the absence of air resistance, the speed of the stone when thrown will be equal to the speed when caught.
