Question

I have everything up until PART F, I've included all previous answers

If a person's entire body is exposed to 5.4 J/kg of x rays, death usually follows within a few days.

Part A

Express this lethal radiation dose in Gy.

5.4Gy

Part B

Express this lethal radiation dose in rad.

540 rad

Part C

Express this lethal radiation dose Sv.

5.4 Sv

Part D

Express this lethal radiation dose in rem.

540 rem

Part E

How much total energy does a 68.0 kg person absorb from such a dose?

370 J

From here I need help...

Part F

If the 5.4 J/kg came from a beam of protons instead of x rays, what would be dose in Gy?

Part G

If the 5.4 J/kg came from a beam of protons instead of x rays, what would be dose in rad?

Part H

If the 5.4 J/kg came from a beam of protons instead of x rays, what would be dose in Sv?

Part I

If the 5.4 J/kg came from a beam of protons instead of x rays, what would be dose in rem?

Part J

If the 5.4 J/kg came from a beam of protons instead of x rays. How much total energy does a 68.0 kg person absorb from such a dose?

Explanation / Answer

Part A :

5.4 J / kg of x rays

D = 5.4 J / kg ( Gy / J/Kg)

D = 5.4 Gy

Part B :

D = 5.4 J / kg ( 100 rad / J/Kg)

D = 5.4 X 102 rad

D = 540 rad

Part C :

D = ( dose ( Gy ) ) ( QF )

D = 5.4 X 1

D = 5.4 Sv

Part D :

D = ( dose ( rad ) ) ( QF )

D = 540 X 1

D = 540 rem
