Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Based on Rudy Baum’s editorial thoughts on nuclear waste, mining, effects on climate change, cost and human fear has to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Global demand for energy is increasing day by day. In order to meet this demand we need safe and sustainable energy sources. Fossil fuel is non-renewable and cause environmental pollution, so it cannot be used in future. The lion’s share of today’s energy is obtained from nuclear power plants. But difficulty in the waste disposal is the major problem of this method. Solar energy, hydroelectric power can be future’s major energy sources. Several researches are going on in this field for the generation of clean and safe energy.
(b)
Interpretation:
Content in the cartoon has to be explained.

Technetium-99m is an especially interesting and valuable isotope as it emits a gamma ray with a half life ideally suited for medical tests. It would seem that the decay of technetium should fit the treatment above with the result In(c/c) = -kt. The table below includes data from the two sites: http://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/druginfo.cfm?id=7130 http://wiki.medpedia.com/Clinical: Neutrospec_(Technetium_(99m Tc)_fanolesomab). a. b. C. Graph the fraction (c/c.) on the vertical axis versus the time on the horizontal axis. Also graph In(c/c.) on the vertical axis versus time on the horizontal axis. When half of the original amount of starting material has hours fraction remaining disappeared, c/c = ½ and the equation In(c/c.) = -kt becomes In(0.5) = -kt1/2 where t₁₂ is the half life (the time for half of the material to decay away). Determine the slope of your In(c/c.) vs t graph and…arrow_forwardPlease correct answer and don't use hand ratingarrow_forward
