Answer:

Radiation therapy

Explanation:

Her doctor is more likely to use radiation therapy to irradiate the cancerous cells on the skin. The doctor uses soft x-rays to kill the cancer cells. The therapy is used even after surgery as it has the advantage of delaying the advancement of future cancers.

A 60-μC charge is held fixed at the origin and a −20-μC charge is held fixed on the x axis at a point x = 1.0 m. If a 10-μC char

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Ek = 8,79 [J]

Explanation:

We are going to solve this problem, using the energy conservation principle

State 1 or initial state (charges at rest t=0)

E₁ = Ek + U₁

As charge are at rest Ek = 0

And U₁ has two components

U₁₂ = K * Q₁*Q₂ / 0,4 and U₃₂ = K*Q₃*Q₂ / 0,6

U₁₂ = 9*10⁹* 60*10⁻⁶*10*10⁻⁶/0,4 ⇒ U₁₂ = 9*60*10*10⁻³/0,4

U₃₂ = - 9*10⁹* 20*10⁻⁶*10*10⁻⁶/0,6 ⇒ U₃₂ = - 9*20*10*10⁻³/0,6

U₁₂ = 540*10⁻2/0,4 [J] ⇒13,5 [J]

U₃₂ = - 180*10⁻² /0,6 [J] ⇒ - 3 [J]

Then E₁ = E₁₂ + E₃₂

E₁ = 10,5 [J]

At the moment of Q₂ passing x = 40 cm or 0,4 m

E₂ = Ek + U₂

We can calculate the components of U₂ in this new configuration

U₂ = U₁₂ + U₃₂

U₁₂ = 9*10⁹* 60*10⁻⁶*10*10⁻⁶/0,7 ⇒ U₁₂ = 9*60*10*10⁻³/0,7

U₁₂ = 540*10⁻²/0,7 U₁₂ = 7,71 [J]

U₃₂ = - 9*10⁹* 20*10⁻⁶*10*10⁻⁶/0,3 ⇒ U₃₂ = - 9*20*10*10⁻³/0,3

U₃₂ = - 9*20*10⁻²/0,3

U₃₂ = - 6

U₂ = 7,71 -6

U₂ = 1,71 [J]

Then as

E₂ = Ek + U₂ and E₂ = E₁

Then

Ek + U₂ = E₁

Ek = 10,5 - U₂

Ek = 10,5 - 1,71

Ek = 8,79 [J]

Calculate the volume of 19 kilograms of petrol if the density of petrol is 800 kg/m?

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

i hope this will help you :)

Explanation:

mass=19kg

density=800kg/m³

volume=?

as we know that

density=mass/volume

density×volume=mass

volume=mass/density

putting the values

volume=19kg/800kg/m³

so volume=0.02375≈0.02m³

A child is riding a merry-go-round that has an instantaneous angular speed of 1.25 rad/s and an angular acceleration of 0.745 ra

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

So the acceleration of the child will be $8.05m/sec^2$

Explanation:

We have given angular speed of the child $\omega =1.25rad/sec$

Radius r = 4.65 m

Angular acceleration $\alpha =0.745rad/sec^2$

We know that linear velocity is given by $v=\omega r=1.25\times 4.65=5.815m/sec$

We know that radial acceleration is given by $a=\frac{v^2}{r}=\frac{5.815^2}{4.65}=7.2718m/sec^2$

Tangential acceleration is given by

$a_t=\alpha r=0.745\times 4.65=3.464m/sec^$

So total acceleration will be $a=\sqrt{7.2718^2+3.464^2}=8.05m/sec^2$
