The product of the dosage Gy and relative biological efficiency yields a radiation dose equivalent Sv (RBE).

Sv =dose in Gy * RBE Sv=dose in GyRBE

The quantity of ionising energy absorbed by 1 text kg1 kg of tissue is defined as a radiation dose Gy. While RBE is a measure of a specific dose's biological effect relative to the biological effect of an equal quantity of X rays.

<h3>What is radiation?</h3>

Radiation is energy that moves through space at the speed of light from a source. This energy is coupled with an electric and magnetic field, and it exhibits wave-like qualities. Radiation is sometimes known as "electromagnetic waves."

Nature has a diverse variety of electromagnetic radiation. One example is visible light.

X-rays and gamma rays are extremely energetic. They may take electrons from atoms when they engage with them, causing the atom to become ionised.

How do you work out how many atoms there are in a isotope?
GalinKa [24]
206Pb = 1.342 x10^22 atoms 

<span>To find the number of atoms, you must first find the number of moles. If 238U is 238.029g/mol, and we have 1.75 grams, how many moles is that? 1.75 divided by 238.029 = 0.007352045 moles. To find the number of atoms in 0.007352045 moles, you multiply by a mole: </span>
<span>0.007352045 x 6.02 x 10^23 = 4.426 x10^21 atoms. </span>

<span>Same procedure for 206Pb: </span>
<span>4.59 divided by 205.97446 = 0.022284316 moles </span>
<span>0.022284316 x 6.02 x 10^23 = 1.342 x10^22 atoms. </span>

<span>Hope that helps you!

Which of the following statements are true? (mark all that apply)
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

(a) and (b)

Explanation:

Energy is the capacity to do work, and exists in various forms. These forms can be converted one to another by the use of appropriate means. Some examples are sound, mechanical, solar, light, which causes the sensation of vision, etc. energy is measured in Joules (J).

The rate of transfer of energy is called power.

i.e Power = \frac{energy}{time}

It is measured in Watts (W).

When a white light is disperses into its colors, gray and black are not part of the colors. And a black sometimes could be as a result of the absorption of all other colors of light.

what does it mean for data to be reproducible? how would you conduct an experiment in such a way as to get data reproducible?
PIT_PIT [208]
Reproducible is the term where your answers are similar to other groups. If every other group has similar results as yours (only if you use the same measurements) your results are reproducible. If your results are different to every other group your results aren't reproducible.  <span />
