Answer:

Option D

1 mGya/h

Step-by-step explanation:

The National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) regulations stipulate that leakage radiation from the x-ray tube at 1 meter must not exceed 1 mGya/h or 100 mR/h. This is for safety purposes of those who may come in contact with the leaking x-rays.
