Compute the radiation dosage source of beta radiation

Reference no: EM13196644

Calculate the radiation dosage (in grays) for an 57-kg person that is exposed for 3.0 seconds to a 3.0 Ci source of beta radiation. Assume that 100% of the radiation is absorbed and each beta particle has an energy of 1.9× 10-13 J.
