Ok, I should clarify what I"m looking for, there'* a LOT of math involved in this lol.

I'm working with intensity'* vs distances, and time.

Problem I'm stuck on right now is this:

75ci Intensity I need to find
XXSOURCEXX-------------------------------------------------
Iridium 192 100' Distance from source.

Then I need to find the time to recieve a 30 MR Dose at 300'.


Hope that makes the question easier for you guys.
