Estimate the thickness of Copper, Tin and Lead absorber needed to attenuate a 100 keV photon beam by a factor of 10^6.Which absorber material would be ideal for building a wall to shield you from the photons?.
If the thickness of the chest is 20 cm with the bone thickness
to be 4 cm and the tissue thickness 16 cm, what percentage of
X-rays are transmitted through the chest at an incident X-ray
energy of 70 keV assuming half-value layer (HVL) values of 3.5 and
1.8 cm for muscle and bone, respectively?

Gamma-rays (Y-rays) are highly energetic electromagnetic radiation that are emitted when the nuclei undergo transitions in the energy levels. The energy of the y-rays is upward of 100 keV. Due to the high energy, the rays are not appreciably absorbed by even several centimeters of materials such as concrete or wood. However, dense metals such lead, are effective Y-ray absorbers. The amount y-rays that are absorbed depends on the material and the energy of the gamma-rays, the higher the energy,...

In steps c)-e), equation (1) will be solved algebraically using only one value of I/1. and the requisite value of d. In every case, the first plate will cut out the beta particles, so you will be...
Brass bushings have a length of 10 cm, inside diameter of 12 cm, and wall thickness of 4 cm; a density of brass is 8.62 gcm-3. A manufacturer plans to use a centrifugal casting method for making the bushings. a. Name an appropriate centrifugal casting process for making the bushings. b. Determine the rotational speed that obtains a G-factor (GF) of 70. c. When operating at this speed, determine the centrifugal force per square meter (Pa) imposed by the molten...
You need to bend the path of a beam of electrons by 90° for an experiment, so you make a loop of 2. current with N turns and a radius of 15 cm to do it. In order for the electrons to turn by 90°, they have to follow a circular path with the same radius as the loop of wire. 0 (10 points) If the electrons are traveling at 5% the speed of light, how strong does the magnetic...
A ray of light strikes a flat, 2.00-cm-thick block of glass (n = 1.35) at an angle of θ = 33.0° with respect to the normal (see figure below). 2.00 ㎝ (a) Find the angle of refraction at the top surface and the angle of incidence at the bottom surface 24.44 Your response is within 10% of the correct value. This may be due to roundoff error, or you could have a mistake in your calculation. Carry out all intermediate...
5. Fire hoses used in major structure fires have inside diameters of 2.5 in. The nozzle of the fire hose have an inside diameter of 1.2 in. When firefighters are fighting a fire 2019.007 cm above the ground, the pressure in the nozzle is less than at ground level. When measured, the gauge pressure in the nozzle is 0.00 Pa. (a) (2p) How are the firefighters able to fight a fire with zero water pressure? Explain your answer (b) (2p)...
