g calculate the effectiveness radiation dosage in sieverts for a 79 kg person who is exposed 6.8x10^9
Elza [17]

Answer:

The answer is "\bold{dosage = 0.031 rem}"

Explanation:

please find the complete question in the attached file.

Given value:

m = 79\  kg  \\\\n = 3.4 \times  10^9 \\\\E = 5.5  \times  10^{-13} \\\\ RBE = 15

\to E = n E\\

        = 3.4  \times  10^9  \times  5.5  \times  10^{-13} \\\\      = 1.87 \times  10^{-3}

\to E(absorbed) = 1.87  \times 10^{-3}  \times  0.87 = 1.63  \times  10^{-3}

calculating the radiation absorbed per kg:

= \frac{1.63  \times  10^{-3}}{79}  \\\\ = 2.06  \times  10^{-5} \\\\ = 0.00206 \  rad

\to Dosage = 0.00206  \times  15 \\

                 = 0.031 \ \ rem

What two factors determine the energy production of the Hoover Dam
swat32
Mar 28, 2011 · The Hoover Dam generates electricity using hydropower. Hydropower is the power generated by moving water. Dams are often built on a large river, so the water falls down from the top of the dam. At the bottom of the dam, the water rotates a large turbine

Hope this helps :p
