The human body has 9000 beads. In 2000 Bequerel there is no indication of how much mass was measured.

Apple's costs 99.50 euros. Reason why you can't estimate how expensive apples are with just this indication?

Note: See what the difference between activity and specific activity is, and what units are used for them.

  • it is not specified which mass is based on whether a whole wild boar or only 10 g thereof
  • nothing is said about the nature and energy content of the radiation

The information Bequerel gives the Number of the decay events per second. It does not allow any indication of the energy of the measured decomposition products and even no statement about their biological activity.
