A worker receives uniform, whole-body doses of 0.30 mGy from 100-keV neutrons, 0.19 mGy from 1.5-MeV neutrons, and 4.3 mGy from gamma rays. Calculate the effective dose

The effective dose is

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The whole-body does received from  100-keV neutrons is  

    The whole-body does received from  1.5-MeV neutrons is  

     The whole-body does received from   gamma rays is  

Generally from the table of radiation weight factor ,

   The radiation weight factor for  100-keV neutrons is  

    The radiation weight factor for  100-keV neutrons is  

     The radiation weight factor for gamma rays  is  

Generally the effective does is mathematically represented as

=>    

=>
