- a. Compute the binding energy of the reactants and of the products in the nuclear fusion reaction 2H + 6LiS 4He + 4Heb. What is the change in binding energy per nucleon in this reaction?A 95 kgkg patient swallows a 33 μCiμCi beta emitter with a half-life of 5.0 days, and the radioactive nuclei are quickly distributed throughout his body. The beta particles are emitted with an average energy of 0.35 MeVMeV, 90%% of which is absorbed by the body. What dose equivalent does the patient receive in the first week?
