What substance absorbs the greatest amount of radiation?
Lead is one of the substances that absorbs the greatest amount of radiation, particularly gamma rays and X-rays, due to its high density and atomic number. Other materials, such as concrete and water, also provide significant radiation shielding, but lead is often preferred for its effectiveness in compact forms. Additionally, substances like boron and polyethylene are effective at absorbing neutron radiation. The choice of material depends on the type of radiation being shielded against.
Which changes in beta decay mass number or the charge of the nucleus?
Beta decay results in either an increase or decrease in the number of protons, which results in a change in the nuclear charge and produces an atom of a different element.
What happens to the electron cloud with increasing periods number?
The electron cloud increases the amount of valence shells it has with the increase of electrons in the atoms
What is the term that describes the total amount a recipe makes?
The term that describes the total amount a recipe makes is "yield." Yield indicates the number of servings or portions that the recipe produces, helping cooks determine how much of each ingredient is needed based on the desired number of servings.
How do you convert mrads to mrems?
A rad measures the amount of radiation absorbed by a gram of material where as a rem measures the biological effects of different kinds of radiation. To measure the degree of biological effects produced by radiation you would need to know the mrad value as well as the type of radiation because different types of radiation produce different degrees of damage. For example every 1 mrad of beta or gamma radiation produces 1 mrem, every 1 mrad of high energy protons and neurons produce 10 mrems and every 1 mrad of alpha particles produce 20 mrems.
What is the meaning of multiply?
To increase in number; to make more numerous; to add quantity to., To add (any given number or quantity) to itself a certain number of times; to find the product of by multiplication; thus 7 multiplied by 8 produces the number 56; to multiply two numbers. See the Note under Multiplication., To increase (the amount of gold or silver) by the arts of alchemy., To become greater in number; to become numerous., To increase in extent and influence; to spread., To increase amount of gold or silver by the arts of alchemy.
What thing can we do to increase the size of the current the generator produces?
To increase the size of the current the generator produces, you can increase the strength of the magnetic field, increase the speed of rotation of the generator, or increase the number of turns in the generator coil. These factors all contribute to the overall output of the generator.
When you consume alcohol he amount of alcohol that accumulates in your body increases or decreases with the number of drinks you have and the amount of time in which you drink Increase or decreases?
increases
How does adding it subtracting a constant amount by each value in a set of data affect the mean?
When adding and subtracting a constant amount means that that amount will increase. The amount will increase dew to adding each number.
What is the name of the radiation that can increase mutation in humans?
There are a number of types of radiation that can cause mutation in humans.Gamma radiation is probably the one you were thinking of, but ultraviolet radiation can also cause mutation.Pretty much any kind of radiation that causes mutation will almost always cause cancer, as a result.
What happens to the amount of current in a series circuit as the number of batteries increase?
it increases
How do you calculate the percent increase from 1 number to another number that is at least twice the amount of the 1st number?
thats a bit of a mouthful...
What number comes after 4.5?
Any number can be increased by a tiny amount or a large amount, depending on how great a magnitude you wish to increase the number. You could increase 4.5 to 4.6 if you are using tenths, or to 5.0 if you are using halves. There is no 'next' number without knowing the incremental factor you wish to use.
What is the percent increase and decrease?
percent increase and decrease is how much percent it had increased from a certain amount of number, like discounts and markups
When an increase or decrease is expressed as a percent (Hint the amount of change divided by the original number multiplied by 100)?
It is a percentage change - unless the increase changes a negative number to a positive number or a decrease does the opposite.
