Chapter 31, Problem 51(choose chapter or problem)
Assume a liter of milk typically has an activity of 2000 pCi due to If a person drinks two glasses (0.5 L) per day, estimate the total effective dose (in Sv and in rem) received in a year. As a crude model, assume the milk stays in the stomach 12 hr and is then released. Assume also that roughly 10% of the 1.5 MeV released per decay is absorbed by the body. Compare your result to the normal allowed dose of 100 mrem per year. Make your estimate for (a) a 60-kg adult, and (b) a 6-kg baby
