A point source of 6mev photons is embedded at the center of


A point source of 6MeV photons is embedded at the center of a lead sphere having a radius of 8cm. Calculate or estimate, to some reasonable engineering accuracy, the fraction of photon energy emitted by the source that leak out of the sphere.
