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.

Does wind have atoms and molecules in it?
Likurg_2 [28]
<span>
Of course.  Wind is air in motion, and the gases in air are composed of
all the usual familiar stuff ... atoms, molecules, mass, etc.  That's how
the wind moves things ... it has momentum and kinetic energy, which
get transferred to the things that move in the wind.</span>

If the man on the left pulls on the object with a force of 500 N and the man on the right pulls on the object with a force of 75
Igoryamba
Force is a vector quantity
so pulling from opposite side will be negative
so
750+(-500)= 250N
C is the right answer
becauseause the man on the right applies greater force.

Using the given equation you get:

E = 1.99x10^-25 / 9.0x10^-6

Divide 1.99 by 9.0: 1.99/9.0 = 0.22

For the scientific notation, when dividing subtract the two exponents:

25 -6 = 19

So you now have 0.22 x 10^-19

Now you need to change the 0.22 to be in scientific notation form:

2.2 x 10^-20

The answer is B.
