Question
Chapter 32, Problem 1FC
To determine
The units of biologically equivalent dose.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 1FC
The correct option is (c) rems.
Explanation of Solution
Formula used:
Write the expression for a biologically equivalent dose.
Here,
RBE is relative biological effectiveness.
Explanation:
From Equation (1), the biologically equivalent dose is understood to be a product of absorbed dose and relative biological effectiveness. The absorbed dose is specified in the units of rads and the biologically equivalent dose is measured in the units of rems.
Conclusion:
Thus, the correct option is (c) rems.

- 3.63 • Leaping the River II. A physics professor did daredevil stunts in his spare time. His last stunt was an attempt to jump across a river on a motorcycle (Fig. P3.63). The takeoff ramp was inclined at 53.0°, the river was 40.0 m wide, and the far bank was 15.0 m lower than the top of the ramp. The river itself was 100 m below the ramp. Ignore air resistance. (a) What should his speed have been at the top of the ramp to have just made it to the edge of the far bank? (b) If his speed was only half the value found in part (a), where did he land?
