    This video is from our inverse square law series.
    In this video, you will see many step-by-step examples in how to perform inverse square law word problems.
    The inverse square law in a fundamental concept within radiography. Through the use of the inverse square law radiographers are able to calculate x-ray photons intensity and radiation dose.

    In all examples: after the squares of the distances are calculated you MUST do the division (1600 over 3600 = 0.44) THEN you must multipy that figure by the 1.2 mGy to get the new dose = 0.44 X 0.44 = 0.53 mGy.

    @pancho101101 Před rokem

    In the first example where distance 1 is 72in and distance 2 is 36in the equation still works but isn’t necessary bc the inverse square law also states that if your distance is cut in half the intensity is 4 times as much and if you double the distance the intensity is 1/4. This means you can just multiply the original intensity of 0.01 mGy by 4 to get 0.04 mGy bc the distance was cut in half from 72 to 36.

    wouldnt it be the I2 going to the other side ?? not saying its wrong or anything because I haven't had algebra in a while but just a question

  • @perfumetester10
    @perfumetester10 Před 4 lety +1

    I like that you clarified that if the distance increase or decrease. Then your answer will be the opposite of distance result. BUT..... if a student did not know how to perform the calculation with the original formula, WHY would you show another formula.(that you prefer) To add confusion to an all ready confused student WHY....WHY.... add confusion on top of confused.????

  • @saplink6411
    @saplink6411 Před rokem +1

    This may be a silly request but do u know of any videos that have a step by step on using a scientific calculator to solve radiation safety math questions.? Thank u

  • @yamahschector
    @yamahschector Před 6 lety +5

    I don't get how you did your math at all. I get the squaring each number but what did you do to get your answer.

  • @mayiewawawawa5028
    @mayiewawawawa5028 Před 5 lety +1

    In bushong chapter 8 there’s a problem where 1.1 is squared but it is still 1.1 why is that?

  • @shaneritchie5873
    @shaneritchie5873 Před 4 lety +1

    Dose this work, when looking for distance 2, if u sq. Root the the final answer?

    • @gospelphysics
      @gospelphysics Před 3 lety +1

      Correct, same form for the equation, but root the final answer.

  • @thelabexperts
    @thelabexperts Před 2 lety +1

    But the 3rd one answer was-0.19
    1 Divided by 5 =0.2
    And 0.2- 0.01 is equal to=0.19 but the answer was 0.04 How sir 🙏
    Please help to understand

  • @rociocrystal5780
    @rociocrystal5780 Před 2 lety

    I thought you need to flip the numbers. And when I did I got 0.0025 as my answer I don’t I understand why he didn’t flip them

  • @7rlalko
    @7rlalko Před 2 lety

    ok i was over thinking, if dis is decreasing then the exposure increases, I always thought it was opposite, im visualizing it and over thinking. nope overthinking again dugh,

    Answer wrong ....but you 0.01*2=0.2
