Homework

Weighing Astronauts. This procedure has actually been used to "weigh" astronauts in space. A 42.5-kg chair is attached to a spring and allowed to oscillate. When it is empty, the chair takes 1.30 s to make one complete vibration. But with an astronaut sitting in it, with her feet off the floor, the chair takes 2.54 s for one cycle. What is the mass of the astronaut .Slide8

Homework

43.22-

Radioactive isotopes used in cancer therapy have a "shelf- life," like

pharmaceuticals

used in chemotherapy. Just after it has been

manufactured

in a nuclear reactor, the activity of a sample of

60

co is 5000

Ci

. When its activity falls below 3500

Ci

, it is considered too weak a source to use in treatment. You work in the radiology department of a large hospital. One of these

60

co sources in your inventory was manufactured on October 6, 2004. It is now April 6, 2007. Is the source still

usable?

The half-life of

60

co is 5.271 years. Slide23

Homework

43.24, Radioactive Tracers. Radioactive isotopes are often introduced into the body through the bloodstream. Their spread through the body can then be monitored by detecting the appearance of radiation in different organs.

emitter with a half- life of 8.0 d is one such tracer. Suppose a scientist introduces a sample with an activity of 375

Bq

2

1/2

weeks) later? (b) If the decay rate in the thyroid 24 d later is actually measured to be 17.0

43.26. As a health physicist, you are being consulted about a spill in a radiochemistry lab. The isotope spilled was 500µCi of
