Radioactive iodine (radioiodine) is given to patients with some forms of thyroid cancer in order to destroy the cancer cells. 131I has a half-life of 8 days. Women who have been treated with 131I are advised to not become pregnant for 180 days (approximately 6 months) to avoid the radioactive contamination of a developing fetus. If a woman has been given a dose of 10 mCi (millicurie, a measurement of radiation), how much 131I will still be in her system when she can safely become pregnant?

A. 1.7 x 10-6 mCi
B. 22.5 x 10-6 mCi
C. There will be no iodine-131 left in her system after 180 days.
D. 3.125% of the original isotope

adding a(n) to an electric circuit would increase the magnetic field around a wire;

b. solenoid

a solenoid is a type of electromagnet whose purpose is to generate a controlled magnetic field.

if the purpose of the solenoid is instead to impede changes in the electric current, a solenoid can be more specifically classified as an inductor rather than an electromagnet.

note: the given question is incomplete.

complete question is given below.

which is an example of kinetic energy?

a. the energy stored in ethanol  

b. a hockey puck sliding across the ice  

c. a compressed spring  

d. a ball sitting at the top of a ramp

solution: the kinetic energy is the energy posses by the virtue of the motion of the object.

in the given options, a, c and d are the example of potential energy because it is the energy posses by the virtue of the rest of the object. but option b has the kinetic energy as the object is in motion.

hence, a hockey puck sliding across the ice   is the apex example of kinetic energy.

so, the option (b) a hockey puck sliding across the ice   is the correct option.
