Why radiation is not good for us?
Because a dose greater than 6 Gy to the whole body are generally not treatable and usually lead to death within two days to two weeks.With Gy of course refering to a unit called gray which is used to measure the amount of absorbed radiation. ============================= Radiation is like bullets. Just like bullets the radiations also pierce through your flesh causing damages to wherever it passes through. And like poison laced bullets can cause damages to the rest of your body which we refer to as cancer. But you wont be able to see this as these bullets are too small to be seen by the naked eye. They are composed of alpha beta and gamma radiations. Read about them as well.
What is an example of proper units for expressing exposure rate?
Exposure to what, exactly? The most common kind of exposure that is used is exposure to electromagnetic radiation, especially in the higher intensities. One SI unit is the Gray (Gy). 1 Gray is equivalent to 1 Joule of energy absorbed by 1 kg of matter. More useful is the SI unit Sievert (SV), which accounts for type of radiation and all other pertinent factors.

In English that would be pronounced Gy-orn
What you call the amount of radiation therapy?
Radiation Therapy dose is measured in Gray (abbrev. Gy).
How do you pronounce Haggai?
HA-gy is what Hebrew translation has. Prounounced- HAG-eye
What is the most likely early biologic response a patient may experience if they were exposed to a dose of 0.3 Gy of radiation?
Any biological effects will depend on the type of radiation and the energy, but a Gray is a big shot of radiation. In general, it is probable that the affected individual who has gotten a whole-body dose of 0.3 Gy would first present with nausea and vomiting.
What are the measurements of radiation?
Becquerel, Gray, Curie, Rad, Sievert. The SI unit is Gray (Gy) defined as 1 J/kg absorbed.
Is 0.3 a lot of radiation?
You need to specify the units used to take the measurement. It could be presented in Sv, Gy, rad or mrem. (So I am asking you 0.3 what??)Light radiation sickness begins at about50-100 rad0.5-1 gray (Gy)0.5-1 Sievert (Sv)50-100 rem50,000-100,000 mremSo if your measurement is in Rad - no it's not a lot. If it's in Gy or Sv then it is a significant dose, but will not cause acute sickness. If it's in rem then it's not a lot.
