Answer:
a) 0.0288 grams
b)
Explanation:
Given that:
A typical human body contains about 3.0 grams of Potassium per kilogram of body mass
The abundance for the three isotopes are:
Potassium-39, Potassium-40, and Potassium-41 with abundances are 93.26%, 0.012% and 6.728% respectively.
a)
Thus; a person with a mass of 80 kg will posses = 80 × 3 = 240 grams of potassium.
However, the amount of potassium that is present in such person is :
0.012% × 240 grams
= 0.012/100 × 240 grams
= 0.0288 grams
b)
the effective dose (in Sieverts) per year due to Potassium-40 in an 80- kg body is calculate as follows:
First the Dose in (Gy) =
=
=
Effective dose (Sv) = RBE × Dose in Gy
Effective dose (Sv) =
Effective dose (Sv) =
By using third law of equation of motion, the final velocity V of the rubber puck is 8.5 m/s
Given that a hockey player hits a rubber puck from one side of the rink to the other. The parameters given are:
mass m = 0.170 kg
initial speed u = 6 m/s.
Distance covered s = 61 m
To calculate how fast the puck is moving when it hits the far wall means we are to calculate final speed V
To do this, let us first calculate the kinetic energy at which the ball move.
K.E = 1/2m
K.E = 1/2 x 0.17 x
K.E = 3.06 J
The work done on the ball is equal to the kinetic energy. That is,
W = K.E
But work done = Force x distance
F x S = K.E
F x 61 = 3.06
F = 3.06/61
F = 0.05 N
From here, we can calculate the acceleration of the ball from Newton second law
F = ma
0.05 = 0.17a
a = 0.05/0.17
a = 0.3 m/
To calculate the final velocity, let us use third equation of motion.
=
+ 2as
=
+ 2 x 0.3 x 61
= 36 + 36
= 72
V =
V = 8.485 m/s
Therefore, the puck is moving at the rate of 8.5 m/s (approximately) when it hits the far wall.
