Gertrude writes a short story in which the main character must enter a nuclear-powered spaceship’s engine room that has lost its shielding in order to prevent the engine from flooding the rest of the ship with radiation. The main character is not wearing protective gear. What effects are best for Gertrude to consider when planning what may happen to the character?

non-stochastic effects such as possible DNA mutations later in life resulting from the short-term, high-level exposure
non-stochastic effects such as severe burns and radiation sickness resulting from the short-term, high-level exposure
stochastic effects such as possible DNA mutations that are unlikely to occur from the single, low-level exposure
stochastic effects such as severe burns and radiation sickness resulting from the long-term, low-level exposure

The heater element of a 120 v toaster is a 5.4 m length of nichrome wire, whose diameter is 0.48 mm. the resistivity of nichrome at the operating temperature of the toaster is 1.3 × 10-6 ω·m. the toaster is operated at a voltage of 120 v. (a) what is the power drawn by the toaster? (b) if the cost of electricity is 12 ¢ per kilowatt-hour, and it takes 2 minutes to toast bread, how much does it cost for toasted bread? (c) when the heater element is at room temperature, is the resistivity in the nichrome wire greater than, less than, or equal to it’s resistivity when at operating temperature? explain.
