Each alpha particle in a beam of alpha particles has a kinetic energy of 5.0 MeV. Through what potential difference would you have to accelerate these alpha particles in order that they would have enough energy so that if one is fired head-on at a gold nucleus it could reach a point 1.0x10^-14 m from the center of the nucleus? I know that the answer is delta V = 9e6 Volts I am struggling to get past KEi = 5.0...

A patient with prostate cancer is treated with implanted seeds that contain the samarium isotope 153Sm which decays with a half-life of 1.9 days by emitting beta particles (RBE=1) each of 0.8 MeV energy. The seeds have an activity of 100 MBq when first implanted, and 40% of the decay energy is absorbed by the 0.024 kg prostate gland. What dose equivalent does the gland receive after 1.9 days?
