Radioactive Cookies
Printer Friendly Version
Suppose you are given three radioactive cookies -- one an alpha emitter, one a beta emitter, one a gamma emitter. You must eat one, hold one in your hand, and put the other one in your pocket.
What can you do to minimize your total exposure to radiation?
