Jack underwent radiation therapy using a beam of neutrons to treat a skin cancer on his hand. He received a dose equivalent of 20 mSv  that was absorbed in 23 g of tissue. The relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of these neutrons is 10. What absorbed dose of radiation did Jack receive? In Gy What was the total energy of the absorbed radiation? in J Suppose Jill, also being treated for skin cancer, received the same absorbed dose, but from an electron...
