Danielle Silverstein PHY 101 Section 10497 March 4‚ 2013 Light up this World Purpose: In this lab experiment‚ LED lights will be used to show how when E&M radiation is absorbed‚ the energy is converted to heat. A drop of isopropyl alcohol will absorb light energy of different colors‚ and the evaporation rate of the alcohol will be measured. The key to this lab is the evaporation rate is directly related to the energy of the light shining on the drop. Materials: * * LEDs

research has concluded that mobile phones do produce RF energy and emit electromagnetic radiation. Studies have also concluded that high levels of RF energy can be harmful to human health. However‚ all scientific studies have not agreed if the levels of RF energy emitted from modern cell phones is harmful. The biggest concern with prolonged use of cell phones is the human body’s absorption of electromagnetic radiation. Electromagnetic radiation consists of waves of electric and magnetic energy moving

emissions are electromagnetic radiations which occur due to the spontaneous disintegration of unstable nuclei. Natural elements with atomic number greater than 83 and isotopes of some lighter elements are found to be radioactive. They are categorized as alpha‚ beta and gamma radiations. Alpha particles are positively charged helium-4 nuclei ‚ beta particles are high energy-high speed electrons while gamma rays unlike alpha and beta radiation have no mass and charge and are short electromagnetic waves consisting

Lens Antenna an antenna whose directivity pattern is a result of the difference between the phase velocity of propagation of an electromagnetic wave in air and that in the lens material. Lens antennas are used in radar and metering equipment that operates in the centimeter wavelength range. A lens antenna consists of a lens proper and of a feed. The shape of the lens depends on the refractive index n (the ratio of the phase velocity of propagation of a radio wave in a vacuum to that in the lens)

Electromagnetic waves or radiation [pic] The electromagnetic waves that compose electromagnetic radiation can be imagined as a self-propagating transverse oscillating wave of electric and magnetic fields. This diagram shows a plane linearly polarized EMR wave propagating from left to right. The electric
