Which of the following best explains why snow predictions by meteorologists are sometimes incorrect?
a. weather data are misinterpreted.

b. weather instruments are extremely precise.

c. interference from the sun causes data to be collected inaccurately.

d. local variations in weather are too small for weather instruments to replicate.

Cyclotrons are widely used in nuclear medicine for producing short-lived radioactive isotopes. these cyclotrons typically accelerate h- (the hydride ion, which has one proton and two electrons) to an energy of 5 mev to 20 mev. this ion has a mass very close to that of a proton because the electron mass is negligible—about 1 2000 of the proton’s mass. a typical magnetic field in such cyclotrons is 1.9 t. (a) what is the speed of a 5.0-mev h-? (b) if the h- has energy 5.0 mev and b = 1.9 t, what is the radius of this ion’s circular orbit?
