Why is alpha rays not suitable to scan baggage at the airport?​
Inga [223]

Answer:

Alpha particles are not used to check baggage in airport as these rays are not penetrated far through matter.

<u>Explanation: </u>

Alpha particles are produced by the <em>decay of a radioactive nucleus.</em> These alpha rays are <em>ceased by paper</em>. The <em>nucleus</em> of the helium atom is made up of <em>two protons and two neutrons</em> is the particle <em>ejected by alpha particle</em>.

As helium is <em>harmless and as an inert gas</em>, so these particles are not dangerous in themselves. The airport baggage security uses only X-ray scanners to inspect. These rays identify the <em>hidden items inside the baggage. </em>

A steam power plant produces 50MW of net work while burning fuel to produce 150MW of heat energy at the high temperature. Determ
Mazyrski [523]

Nth =\frac{W net, out}{Qh}

50MW is our net output.

Then, we plug it in.

= \frac{50MW}{150MW} = 0.333 or 33.33%

W net, out = Qh - Ql

Ql = Qh - W net,out

Plug the values in.

Then, it becomes:

= 150MW - 50 MW

= 100MW

Thus, the cycle thermal efficiency is 33.33% and the heat rejected is 100MW.
