Radioisotopes of indium are used as tracer particles in diagnostic tests to locate areas of infection. indium has a tetragonal unit cell with a= 0.325 nm and c= 0.495 nm. if the atomic packing factor is 0.693 and the atomic radius is 0.1625 nm, determine the number of atoms in each unit cell

Coiled springs ought to be very strong and stiff. si3n4 is a strong, stiff material. would you select this material for a spring? explain.

True or false (explain) (110)[111] is a slip system in bcc metals . the {111} family in fcc contains 8 planes. resolved shear stress (rss) in single crystals is just related to the applied stress. critical resolved shear stress (crss) in single crystal metals is direct proportional to the number of defects in the structure

An electric kettle is made out of stainless steel, weighs two pounds (when empty) and is equipped with a heating element that consumes 2 kw of electricity. assuming that the water and the kettle are at the same uniform temperature at any moment of time, calculate the shortest possible time to bring 2 quarts of water from room temperature to the onset of boiling
