Calculate the mass of ¹³¹I that needs to given to apatient whose thyroid is to be imaged. Assume that an activity of15MBq is required for imaging and that all of the iodine isabsorbed in the thyroid.

(i have calculated the effective half life of ¹³¹I = 7days.Not sure if its related.)

1) Airconditioners operate on the same principle asrefrigerators.Consider an air conditioner that has 7.00 kg ofrefrigerantflowing through its circuit each cycle. The refrigerantenters theevaporator coils in phase equilibrium, with 54.0 % of itsmassas liquid and the rest as vapor. It flows through theevaporator ata constant pressure and when it reaches the compressor95 % ofits mass is vapor. In each cycle, how much heatQ_c isabsorbed by the refrigerant while it is in theevaporator? The heatvaporization of the refrigerantis1.50Ã10⁵ J/kg.

Express your answer numericallyinjoules.

2) In eachcycle,the change in internal energy of the refrigerant when itleaves thecompresser is 1.20Ã10⁵ J. What is the workWdone by the motor of the compressor?

Express your answer injoule

3) If the direction of the refrigerant flow is inverted in anairconditioner, the air conditioning unit turns into a heat pumpand itcan be used for heating rather than cooling. In this case,the coilswhere the refrigerant would condense in the airconditioner becomethe evaporator coils when the unit is operatedas a heat pump, and,vice versa, the evaporator coils of the airconditioner become thecondenser coils in the heat pump. Supposeyou operate the airconditioner described in Parts A and B as aheat pump to heat yourbedroom. In each cycle,what is the amount of heat Q_hreleased into theroom? You may assume that the energy changes andwork doneduring the expansion process are negligible compared tothose forother processes during the cycle.

An object of mass M is attached to a spring with spring constant k whose unstretched length is L, and whose far end is fixed to a shaft that is rotating with an angular speed of ω. Neglect gravity and assume that the mass also rotates with an angular speed of ω as shown. (Figure 1)When solving this problem use an inertial coordinate system, as drawn here. (Figure 2)

1) Given the angular speed of ω , find the radius R(ω) at which the mass rotates without moving toward or away from the origin.

2) Assume that, at a certain angular speed ω2, the radius R becomes twice L. Find ω2.

Express your answer in radians per second.

3) You probably have noticed that, as you increase ω, there will be a value. ω_crit, for which R(ω) goes to infinity. Find ω_crit.
