Given mass of person , m = 135 lb

                                      = 135/2.205 kg                   Since 1 kg = 2.205 lb

                                      = 61.22 kg

61.22 kg person absorbs 3.3x10-7 J of energy

                                  = 3.3x10-7 J x(0.01 / 0.01)

                                  = 3.3x10-5 x 0.01 J

                                  = 3.3x10-5 rad
