I guess you are talking about how much radiation you can absorb in a given time.

usually you express this in term of dose, that is how much time you have been exposed to a specific radiation.

so, you just add the doses you have been exposed to.

if you reach 1mSv/year for work reasons and you aren't part of a special team, you should start to worry about this.

If you are a worker which is occupationally exposed to radiation, you should not reach the 20mSv/year threshold.

What is the purpose of wearing a film badge when working with ionizing radiation sources?

Film badges are worn by workers to monitor their exposure to ionizing radiation sources. The badge contains film strips that darken when exposed to radiation, providing a way to measure and track radiation exposure over time. This helps ensure that radiation doses stay within safe limits and protect workers' health.

Is there any way to change the average amount of radiation emitted from a radioactive substance?

No, the average amount of radiation emitted from a radioactive substance is inherent to the substance's decay process and cannot be changed. The rate of decay is measured by the substance's half-life, which is a fixed characteristic of the radioactive material.


Who invented a way to detect radiation?

Henri Becquerel discovered radiation in 1896 while working with uranium salts. His serendipitous discovery of radioactivity paved the way for further research and development of methods to detect and measure radiation.
