The document calculates the absorbed dose and equivalent dose from a radioactive source decaying at a rate of 9.6 x 10^6 decays per second. It finds that:
1) The energy delivered per second is 9.62 x 10^-7 J/s.
2) The absorbed dose is 1.9 x 10^-4 rad.
3) The equivalent dose is 1.3 x 10^-4 rem.
4) It would take 17 days for the equivalent dose to reach 200 rem.
