Many radioisotopes have important industrial, medical, and research applications. one of these is 60co, which has a half-life of 5.20 years and decays by the emission of a beta particle (energy 0.310 mev) and two gamma photons (energies 1.17 mev and 1.33 mev). a scientist wishes to prepare a 60co sealed source that will have an activity of at least 13.7 ci after 24.0 months of use. if the activity is 16.0 ci, how many 60co atoms are in the source?

Amass of m 1.5 kg of steam is contained in a closed rigid container. initially the pressure and temperature of the steam are: p 1.5 mpa and t 240°c (superheated state), respectively. then the temperature drops to t2= 100°c as the result of heat transfer to the surroundings. determine: a) quality of the steam at the end of the process, b) heat transfer with the surroundings. for: p1.5 mpa and t 240°c: enthalpy of superheated vapour is 2900 kj/kg, specific volume of superheated vapour is 0. 1483 m/kg, while for t 100°c: enthalpy of saturated liquid water is 419kj/kg, specific volume of saturated liquid water is 0.001043m/kg, enthalpy of saturated vapour is 2676 kj/kg, specific volume of saturated vapour is 1.672 m/kg and pressure is 0.1 mpa.
