Answer:
D
Explanation:
Gamma radiation penetrates the cell wall of prokaryotic organisms such as bacteria and can inhibit their metabolic functions as well as destroy their DNA.
Debunking the other answers:
A is incorrect as Gamma radiation is used in the treatment of cancer via radiotherapy.
B is incorrect as Gamma rays are too small and would just penetrate any smoke particles.
C is incorrect because Gamma rays are used to disinfect food products to prevent food borne illness. Irradiation is safe to use on food and does not make it radioactive.
Thus, D is correct.
Answer:
Option (B) 6270J
Explanation:
The following were obtained from the question:
M = 100g
T1 = 30°C
T2 = 45°C
ΔT = 45 —30 = 15°C
C = 4.18J/g°C
Q=?
Q = MCΔT
Q = 100 x 4.18 x 15
Q = 6270J
Therefore, the total amount of heat absorbed is 6270J
I only know #8 and the raindrop would increase speed due to gravity.
