- 25. A radiograph made with an exposure of 12 mA per minute has a density of 0.8 in the area of interest. It is desired to increase the density to 2.0 in this area. By reference to a characteristic curve of the film, it is found that the difference in log e between a density of 0.8 and 2.0 is 0.76. The antilogarithm of log 0.76 is 5.8 (relative exposure factor). What must the new exposure time be to produce a radiograph with a density of 2.0, assuming the first exposure time was 1 minute?In a controlled fusion reactor Deuterium-Tritium The temperature of the plasma is T = 10 keV, where k is the k Boltzmann constant.

Round your answer to the nearest integer if needed.In class I derived the ordinary nuclear density to be about 0.138 u/fm3. A neutron star is a collapsed star that contains neutrons in a highly compactified state, so its average density is higher. Assume a neutron star is spherical and has an average density which is about twice the ordinary nuclear density. If it is 50% heavier than the Sun, what would be its radius?
