Assume you have a radioactive spill of 9tc and you are measuring it using a large volume gm tube detector in the shape of a flat disc. you measure 1 counts per minute at a distance of 1 cm from the contaminated surfac a. what detection geometry will you assume for your calculation? b. what is your estimate of the counting efficiency of this geometry? c. what is the activity of the spill? d. if it was decided to leave it there without cleaning it off the surface, how long would it be before the activity was indistinguishable from background radiation of 25 counts per second (assuming it would be within 2 standard deviations of background)? how dangerous is this spill?

Click the game tab at the bottom of the simulation and select level 1. (there is no seesaw balance for this part of the activity.) balance the first equation, and click check to see if you got it right. if you can’t balance it in the first try, you can try again. work through the five equations for level 1. click continue to go on to level 2, and later level 3. each level is more difficult than the one before. keep trying until all the equations are balanced. in one or two sentences, describe how you did in the balancing game. in a few more sentences, explain one strategy you learned for balancing more complex equations.
