Answer:

a. in roentgens per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Exposure rate is the ratio of radiation exposure per unit of time. It is often used to measure radiation fields in the environment of a radioactive facility for exposure prevention and control. Exposure rate is generally expressed as per hour roentgens (R / h) used for X-ray or Gamma in air.

The röntgen or roentgen (R) is a unit of exposure to ionizing radiation. The name was given as a tribute to the German physicist Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen (or Roentgen) (1845-1923) who discovered X-rays.
