The rem is a unit used to measure?
Radiation dose in terms of the amount of the biological effect caused by the amount of energy absorbed
What are the units of measurement for radiation?
rad ------- Dose equivalent: sievert (Sv) Absorbed dose/time: gray/second (Gy/s) Absorbed dose: gray Exposition: coulomb/kilogram (C/kg)

Why did the tenth Doctor die?
Because he absorbed a fatal dose of radiation.
What is the definition for Radiation Absorbed Dose?
someone awnser this question please
What is the difference between absorbed dose and equivalent dose?
sorbed dose (also known as total ionizing dose, TID) is a measure of the energy deposited in a medium by ionizing radiation. It is equal to the energy deposited per unit mass of medium, and so has the unit J/kg, which is given the special name gray (Gy).ote that the absorbed dose is not a good indicator of the likely biological effect. 1 Gy of alpha radiation would be much more biologically damaging than 1 Gy of photon radiation for example. Appropriate weighting factors can be applied reflecting the different relative biological effects to find the dose equivalent.Dose equivalent= absorbed dose x radiation weighting factor( or quality factor).
Parameters that affect the absorbed dose of radiation include which of the following?
