possesses properties that affect the growth rate of plants in different ways. These properties may be the wavelength of the music‚ its frequency or even its tempo. According to a study conducted by Margaret E. Collins and John E. K. Foreman‚ entitled The Effect of Sound on the growth rate of plants (2001)‚ plants growth is directly affected by sounds of varying frequencies. They observed that when plants are exposed to pure tones‚ it affects the growth of the plant. This was due to the transverse wave

What You Need to Know About Radiation Therapy‚ Teen WHAT IS RADIATION THERAPY? Radiation therapy is a type of cancer treatment that uses high-energy waves of radiation to kill cancer cells or shrink tumors. These waves are like fast-moving X-rays. The rays are strong enough to destroy unhealthy cells. In radiation therapy‚ the radiation may be delivered from outside your body or from a source of radiation that is put inside your body. External radiation is usually used‚ though you may have both

The effect of mobile phone radiation on human health is the subject of recent interest and study‚ as a result of the enormous increase in mobile phone usage throughout the world (as of June 2009‚ there were more than 4.3 billion users worldwide). Mobile phones use electromagnetic in the microwave range. Other digital wireless systems‚ such as data communication networks‚ produce similar radiation. The WHO has classified mobile phone radiation on the IARC scale into Group 2B - possibly carcinogenic

International Journal of Medical and Biological Sciences 6 2012 Estimation of Electromagnetic Radiation from Base Station Antenna R. K. Singh Abstract—In the present paper‚ an observation of electromagnetic radiation from base station antennas installed for various communication purposes has been done on the basis of equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) calculations. For this purpose‚ a typical wireless communication site has been selected where GSM‚ CDMA‚ 3G/UMTS and WiMAX antennas are

most skin cancers are caused by too much exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays. The two types of UV rays that cause melanoma are UV-A and UV-B rays. UV-A rays Are fairly constant throughout the year‚ and contribute to aging and wrinkling of the skin. UV-B Rays‚ stronger than UV-A rays‚ are more intense in the summer months and are the most common cause of sunburn. The longer you are out in the sun‚ the more UV radiation you receive. A blistering sunburn at an early age can double a person’s chance

Plant Growth; Varying Light Exposures Intro and Hypothesis: The problem that is going to be answered is: will plant seeds grow at differently if they are covered by different materials while exposing them to the same amount of light? Also‚ which material will allow the plants to grow the most‚ tin foil‚ saran wrap‚ paper or no covering? Before the lab took place‚ it was hypothesized that the less light a plant receives‚ the less it will grow and the more light it receives‚ the more it will grow

Nuclear Radiation There are many ways that the movie The Day the Earth Stood Still and the short story "There Will Come Soft Rains" are similar. "There Will Come Soft Rains" by Ray Bradbury is a science fiction story that deals with nuclear radiation and what the future world would be like if there was an atomic bomb. This short story is a good example of what could happen in the future. The Day the Earth Stood Still is a movie that also has the same genre‚ that it is science fiction. It helps
