please answer the following five questions by typing, thanks.
1. Why is it necessary to subtract the background from all of your measurements before you use them in your analysis?
2. Name two other household radioactive products except( sodium- free substitute, ceramic glaze, bananas, Vaseline glass).
3. Letâs say you are a nurse working in the nuclear medicine division. One treatment for thyroid cancer is to have the patient consume a dose of iodine-131. Since I-131 has a half- life of 8 days, the patient must be housed in a lead- lined room and all bodily fluids collected until they are ready for release. How dangerous is I- 131? What precautions do you need to protect yourself while caring for the patient?
4. Standard Curves used to determine concentrations of materials (also called quantitative analysis. What are the two most common biological substances (DNA, fats, proteins, or sugars) that are measured using standard curves?
5. What happens to the radiation intensity of a radioactive source when the distance between the detector and the source is three times as great as the initial distance?
