From li.shi@utoronto.ca Thu Apr 3 19:42:48 2008 Date: Thu, 03 Apr 2008 19:42:28 -0400 From: li.shi@utoronto.ca To: Tony Key Subject: Q4 N&R PS#6 Dose from Fall-Out Hi Professor Key, For part B of the MasteringPhysics question "Q4 N&R PS#6 Dose from Fall-Out", it asks "What is the increased risk to people exposed to such a level of 90Sr of contracting fatal cancer from this source alone over a lifetime of 60.0 years?". I just multiply my answer from part A by the lifetime (60 years), then multiply that by 5%, right? How come MasteringPhysics says my answer is incorrect? Looking forward to your reply. Thanks. Lily
