Question 1

When a beam of nuclear radiation of initial intensity I0 passes through a thickness x of material, the intensity of the beam exiting the material is I =

◦
I0e−μx.

◦
I0eμx.

◦
I0(e−μx− 1).

◦
I0(eμx− 1).

◦
I0(1 −e−μx).


Question 2

When a fast neutron collides with a hydrogen or deuterium nucleus, the most likely result is that

◦
the neutron has an appreciable gain in kinetic energy, the gain being greatest for head-on collisions.

◦
the neutron has an appreciable gain in kinetic energy, the gain being greatest for oblique collisions.

◦
the neutron has an appreciable loss in kinetic energy, the loss being greatest for head-on collisions.

◦
the neutron has an appreciable loss in kinetic energy, the loss being greatest for oblique collisions.

◦
the neutron is absorbed by the hydrogen or deuterium nucleus.

When Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first mercury thermometer, he called "zero degrees" the lowest temperature he was able to attain with a mixture of ice and salt. For the upper point of his scale, he used 96°, which he measured as normal human body temperature (we know it to be 98.6° today because of more accurate thermometers).

According to the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, lung disease is the third leading killer in the United States, responsible for one in seven deaths. It is the leading cause of death among infants under the age of one year.

Did you know?

Children of people with alcoholism are more inclined to drink alcohol or use hard drugs. In fact, they are 400 times more likely to use hard drugs than those who do not have a family history of alcohol addiction.

Stevens-Johnson syndrome and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis syndrome are life-threatening reactions that can result in death. Complications include permanent blindness, dry-eye syndrome, lung damage, photophobia, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, permanent loss of nail beds, scarring of mucous membranes, arthritis, and chronic fatigue syndrome. Many patients' pores scar shut, causing them to retain heat.
