The decay chain of uranium includes radon, a noble gas. When uranium in the soil decays to radon, it may seep into houses; this can be a significant source of radiation exposure. Most of the exposure comes from the decay products of radon, but some comes from alpha decay of the radon itself. If radon in the air in your home is at the maximum permissible level, the gas in your lungs will have an activity of about 0.22 Bq. Each decay generates an alpha particle with 5.5 MeV of energy, and essentially all that energy is deposited in lung tissue. Part A Over the course of 1 year, what will be the dose equivalent in Sv to the approximately 0.90 kg mass of your lungs? Express your answer in millisieverts per year. ΕΧΕΙ ΑΣΦ dose equivalent = ? mSv/yr

The binding energy for a nucleus containing Z protons and N neutrons is defined as c²[ZM + Nm, - M] where M is the mass of the neutral atom containing the nucleus, the quantity in the parentheses is the mass defect, and c? = 931.5 MeV/u.The binding energy of a nuclide can also be written as E, = Am x 931.5 MeV/u where Am is the mass defect. The Figure below show the mass for neutral atom and the nucleons of a helium atom. SHe Binding energy Mass = 4.0026 u Mass = 4.0330 u Calculate the mass defect Am of a helium atom

A radioactive nucleus has half-life T1/2. A sample containing these nuclei has initial activity R0. Calculate the number of nuclei that decay during the interval between the times t1 and t2.
