Answer:

0.003125 msv

Explanation:

I_1 = Initial Exposure = 0.05 msv

I_2 = Final Exposure

D_1 = Initial distance = 1.5 ft

D_2 = Final distance = 6 ft

Exposure is inversely related to the distance squared (inverse square law)

I\propto \dfrac{1}{D}

So,

\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{D_2^2}{D_1^2}\\\Rightarrow I_2=\dfrac{I_1D_1^2}{D_2^2}\\\Rightarrow I_2=\dfrac{0.05\times 1.5^2}{6^2}\\\Rightarrow I_2=0.003125\ msv

The exposure at the given distance is 0.003125 msv

Review the Climate Map and determine which area is least likely to have a large population?
steposvetlana [31]

The map attached is a world climate map.

Let's analyze it to forecast which regions would be less populated.

It can be regarded how the areas which are coloured in red represent very arid desertic zones, were there is no vegatation and animal or human life almost do not exist. These zones, together with the two areas depicted in white, the South and North Poles, would be the regions that are likely less populated due to their extreme weather conditions.
