Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

From the given statements the correct option for the kinetic energy of a particle has to be chosen.

Concept Introduction:

Kinetic Molecular Theory of matter says about the way of matter can change among its phases of solid, liquid, and gas.  The basic idea of this theory is about the particles (atoms, molecules, or ions) present in a substance has constant motion and are attracted or repelled by each other. The kinetic molecular theory of matter provides five statements which explain the physical behavior of the three states of matter (solids, liquids, and gases) and they are summarized as follows,

  1. 1. Matter is composed of tiny particles (atoms, molecules, or ions) that have definite and characteristic sizes that do not change.
  2. 2. The particles are in constant random motion and therefore possess kinetic energy.
  3. 3. The particles interact with one another through attractions and repulsions and therefore possess potential energy.
  4. 4. The kinetic energy (velocity) of the particles increases as the temperature is increased.
  5. 5. The particles in a system transfer energy to each other through elastic collisions.

Why is it best that a radioactive medical tracer emit high energy gamma rays? so they can be detected outside the body so cells surrounding the radiation source will be killed so the radiation will not cause harmful mutations because the tracer will have a short half-life no correct response
