Unit used to measure radiation dosage (1/1000 of a rem)
One millirem in a scientific notation is written as 10-3 rem.
One millirem is 1 x 10-3 rem, which can also be written as 1E-3 rem. Note that 1 x 10-3 is not the same as 1.0 x 10-3 which is not the same as 1.00 x 10-3. Those numbers have one, two, and three significant digits, respectively. That is, the second number is more precise than the first, and the third is more precise than the first two.
2200 millirem = 2.2 rad
One millirem in a scientific notation is written as 10-3 rem.
The term mSv is a Millisievert and the term mrem is a Millirem, both used in radiation to measure a dosage. 2.4 mSv is equal to 240 mrem.
1 Millirem. Which is less than their yearly dose.
One million is written like this: 1,000,000 or in scientific notation, 1 x 106
One millirem is 1 x 10-3 rem, which can also be written as 1E-3 rem. Note that 1 x 10-3 is not the same as 1.0 x 10-3 which is not the same as 1.00 x 10-3. Those numbers have one, two, and three significant digits, respectively. That is, the second number is more precise than the first, and the third is more precise than the first two.
The average person is exposed to about 3.1 millisieverts of natural radiation per year. This includes exposure from sources like cosmic rays, radon gas, and natural elements in the soil and air.
Yes, even though they do emit ionizing radiation. The amount of radiation emitted from a smoke detector is about 1 hundredth of a millirem per year. The background radiation from radioactive isotopes in the ground is about 300 millirem per year. So the ground your standing on right now is exposing you to more radiation then your smoke detector ever will.
mCi stands for millicurie, which is a unit of measure for radioactivity. It measures the intensity of radioactive decay. mrem stands for millirem, which is a unit of measure for absorbed dose of ionizing radiation. It quantifies the amount of radiation absorbed by human tissue.
According to SOWPODS (the combination of Scrabble dictionaries used around the world) there are 1 words with the pattern ---LIR--. That is, eight letter words with 4th letter L and 5th letter I and 6th letter R. In alphabetical order, they are: millirem
Natural radioactive decay is the process in which unstable atomic nuclei lose energy by emitting radiation, such as alpha particles, beta particles, or gamma rays. This decay occurs to achieve a more stable configuration in the nucleus.
100 million in Scientific Notation = 1 x 108
