Calculate the effective radiation dosage (in Sieverts) for a 63-kg person who is exposed to 4.3 x 109 particles of alpha radiation. Assume that 91% of the radiation is absorbed, each alpha particle has an energy of 6.5 x 10-13 J, and that the RBE of the alpha particles is 15. Note that RBE is sometimes called the quality factor, abbreviated as Q.
