Fragments
|
IMDB rating: 6.10 Plot: In an ordinary day, a deranged man has a rampage in a diner and randomly shoots the costumers. The survivors of the tragic episode are deeply affected by the shooting and have the most different reactions: the youngster, Anne Hagen, becomes popular at school telling her version of the shooting; her friend Jimmy Jaspersen becomes mute and closes himself to the outer world; the waitress Carla Davenport neglects her baby and has several vulgar relationships with men; Dr. Bruce Laraby loses his self-confidence and tries an experimental treatment to the migraine of his wife; and the compulsive gambler Charlie Archenault believes that he is lucky in the game and gambles all his money but he has a jinx. |

Nuclear questions & elements?
1) The ratio of carbon-14 to carbon-12 in a prehistoric wooden artifact is measured to be 1/8 of the ratio measured in a fresh sample of wood from the same region. The half-life of carbon-14 is 5730 years. Determine the age.
2) Health officials are concerned about radon levels in homes. The half-life of radon-222 is 3.82 days. If a sample of gas taken from a basement contains 4.38 U g of radon-222, how much will remain in the sample after 15.2 days?
3) Explain how the equivalence of mass and energy accounts for the small difference between the mass of a uranium-235 nucleus and the masses of the nuclei of its fission fragments.
4) Describe the similarities & differences between atomic electrons & beta particles.
5) Why do people working around radioactive waste in a radioactive storage facility wear badges containing strips of photographic film?
I don’t have the time for these problems. I’ve got to work on 4 other classes, biology & algebra among them.
