How much nuclear radiation is considered safe for humans?
From MIT: Adult: 5,000 Millirems per year The current federal occupational limit of exposure per year for an adult (the limit for a worker using radiation) is "as low as reasonably achievable; however, not to exceed 5,000 millirems" above the 300+ millirems of natural sources of radiation and any medical radiation. Radiation workers wear badges made of photographic film which indicate the exposure to radiation. Readings typically are taken monthly. A federal advisory committee recommends that the lifetime exposure be limited to a person's age multiplied by 1,000 millirems (example: for a 65-year-old person, 65,000 millirems). Minor: 500 Millirems The maximum permissible exposure for a person under 18 working with radiation is one-tenth the adult limit or not to exceed 500 millirems per year above the 300+ millirems of natural sources, plus medical radiation. This was established in 1957 and reviewed as recently as 1990. Fetus: 500 Millirems Or 50 Per Month (New Rule Jan. 1, 1994) New federal regulations went into effect New Year's Day, establishing for the first time an exposure limit for the embryo or fetus of a pregnant woman exposed to radiation at work. The limit for the gestation period is 500 millirems, with a recommendation that the exposure of a fetus be no more than 50 millirems per month. Weight Variables Like alcohol intoxication levels, levels of exposure to radioactivity (due to radioactivity deposited in the body) depend on a person's weight. A diagnostic tracer of one microcurie of radioactive calcium 45, given orally, would result in an exposure of 3.7 millirems for a 100-pound person, and half of that, 1.85 millirems, for a 200-pound person. Therapeutic Radiation Therapeutic radiation treatment that is delivered by administering radioactive material via the mouth or by injection usually results in high, very localized doses to a small part of the body, which absorbs most of the radioactivity. The radioactivity concentrates and remains in the target organ (for example, the thyroid) for a longer period of time than does the radioactivity that is distributed to the rest of the body. The radiation exposure for other parts of the body is a function of the amount of radioactivity per pound and the time the radioactivity is present in the tissue. As well if you are looking for ways to reduce your risk of radiation there are certain foods and supplements that you can take that can greatly reduce your risk, squidoo.com/radiation-alert-inspector-measure has more answers
Some people get less rem sleep that normal because of their schedules once these people are able to sleep on a normal schedule again what happens to their rem cycles?
idk
What is a term for REM sleep reflecting that the body is aroused but the muscles are relaxed?
Paradoxical
How can brain waves produced during non rem sleep be described?
Very long and slow A+
How much radiation is the average US Citizen exposed to during a typical year from TV and microwave ovens?
300 rem
What is the amount of the average background radiation in millirems?
The average background radiation is typically around 300 millirems per year.
How much millirems dose it take to be lethal?
About 100,000 millirems in a short amount of time is enough to kill you, but the variable in that is the "short amount of time" part

How many millisieverts in a rem?
One rem is equivalent to 10 millisieverts (mSv). Both are units of measurement for ionizing radiation dose, with the rem being part of the older, traditional system and the mSv being part of the metric system. Thus, if you want to convert rem to millisieverts, you can simply multiply the number of rem by 10.
How do you convert mrads to mrems?
A rad measures the amount of radiation absorbed by a gram of material where as a rem measures the biological effects of different kinds of radiation. To measure the degree of biological effects produced by radiation you would need to know the mrad value as well as the type of radiation because different types of radiation produce different degrees of damage. For example every 1 mrad of beta or gamma radiation produces 1 mrem, every 1 mrad of high energy protons and neurons produce 10 mrems and every 1 mrad of alpha particles produce 20 mrems.
How do you convert rmt to sqmt?
To convert square rems (rmt) to square meters (sqmt), you need to know the conversion factor between the two units. One rem is equal to 0.01 meters, so one square rem (1 rmt) equals 0.0001 square meters (1 rmt = 0.01 m × 0.01 m). Therefore, to convert rmt to sqmt, you multiply the number of square rems by 0.0001.
REM rebound involves the?
REM rebound involves the tendency for REM sleep to increase following REM sleep deprivation.
What is plural of rem?
The plural form of rem is rem.Ex: I have a lifetime dose of 3 rem.
What is the birth name of Rem Lebedev?
Rem Lebedev's birth name is Rem Fedorovich Lebedev.
When was Rem Krassilnikov born?
Rem Krassilnikov was born in 1927.
