Does the amount of radiation (cpm) increase or decrease as the distance between the source and the sensor increases ? Explain.Does the amount of radiation (cpm) increase or decrease as the thickness of the shielding increases (while the distance between the source and the sensor stays the same)? Explain.Does the amount of radiation (cpm) change when shielding made from different materials is used ? Explain.Based on your answers to 1 to 3, what are three factors that can allow us to reduce the amount of radiation exposure ? Explain.Based on your data, which is better for use as a radiation shield, Al or Pb? Why might the other one be used in certain applications?

00:01 Intensity of radiation intensity of radiation intensity of radiation we know that is equals to energy per unit area per unit time that means the intensity here is inversely proportional to area and inversely proportional to the distance between the source the square of the distance between the source and the sensor so here d is the distance between d is the distance between source and sensor and sensor so now from this we can say that the amount of radiation amount of radiation is inversely proportional to so it will decrease if area increase then intensity decrease and also if distance increase then also intensity will decrease so the amount of radiation decreases as the distance between because if the distance increases then intensity decreases as the distance between the source and sensor…
