Applied science: radiation, ventilation, heat and force
CSP written lesson, 10 min read. CSP Domain 6: Occupational Health and Applied Science
AI-drafted from the cited rules and fact-checked against them. Study aid, not site-specific safety advice. The official rule controls.
What you'll learn
- Apply the decay equation and the half-life relationship
- Use the inverse square law and half-value layers together
- Size general dilution ventilation in two steps
- Choose the correct indoor or outdoor WBGT equation
- Apply F = m × a to a vehicle or load coming to a stop
What this lesson covers
This lesson covers six applied-science topics that appear in calculation questions: radioactive decay, the inverse square law, half-value layer shielding, dilution ventilation, WBGT and Newton's second law. Knowing which form applies, and the common slips, is what separates a right answer from a near miss on the exam and on the job.
