Potassium is a crucial element for the healthy operation of the human body. Potassium occurs naturally in our environment (and thus our bodies) as three isotopes: Potassium-39, Potassium-40, and Potassium-41. Their current abundances are 93.26%, 0.012% and 6.728%. A typical human body contains about 3.0 grams of Potassium per kilogram of body mass.
How much Potassium-40 is present in a person with a mass of 80 kg?
If, on average, the decay of Potassium-40 results in 1.10 MeV of energy absorbed, determine the effective dose (in Sieverts) per year due to Potassium-40 in an 80-kg body. Assume an RBE of 1.2. The half-life of Potassium-40 is 1.28 x 109 years.

It is predicted that humans will have no cholce but to reduce their water footprints in the near future. A water footprint is an estimate of how much water it takes each year to meet the needs of a person, a population, or a country. Currently, the total water footprint of U.S. citizens is 2,487 cubic meters per year per capita (m/yr/ca). This is equivalent to 657,000 gallons/yr/ca, or more than 16,000 bathtubfuls of water per year! From what you know about water footprints, which of the following makes up the majority of the average American's water footprint?
