Answer
Step-by-step solution
5 stepsIdentify the given values.
The power delivered by the radiotherapy machine () is .
The total energy required () is .Recall the formula relating power, energy, and time.
Power is defined as the rate at which energy is transferred or used:
where is power, is energy, and is time.
Rearrange the formula to solve for time ().
Substitute the given values into the formula.
Calculate the time.
The treatment is done for .
