Answer:
The dose absorbed by the person's body is 52600 mrem.
Explanation:
Given that,
Radiation = 52.6 rad
We need to calculate the absorbed dose
We know that,
The equivalent dose is equal to the absorbed radiation for beta source.
So, The patient is exposed 52.6 rad of radiation.
Therefore, The absorbed radiation is equal to the exposed 52.6 rad of radiation.
[tex]1 rad = \dfrac{1\ rem}{1000\ mrem}[/tex]
So, radiation absorbed = 52.6 rad
[tex]radiation\ absorbed =52.6\times1000\ mrem[/tex]
[tex]radiation\ absorbed = 52600\ mrem[/tex]
Hence, The dose absorbed by the person's body is 52600 mrem.
