Answer:

E = 7.334 KeV

Explanation:

given,

initial energy = 60 keV

Δ x = 30 cm

E = E_0e^{-\mu \Delta x}

μ(for soft tissue) = 0.7 cm⁻¹ (taken from table)

E = E_0e^{-0.7\times 20}

         E = 60 × 0.1224

         E = 7.334 KeV

energy of x-ray photon after travelling through 30 cm soft tissue in body is E = 7.334 KeV
