    during their life span. This complex method of energy production is also represented by the equation: 6CO2 + 6H2O C6H12O6 +6O2 (Campbell‚ 2008). The sun’s light waves‚ also known as radiation or electromagnetic energy‚ are measured and organized into the electromagnetic spectrum. Waves on the electromagnetic spectrum are measured in nanometers (nm); the shorter a wave is‚ the more energy it possesses‚ and the longer the wave the less energy it possesses (Wiles‚ 2013). The sun’s light waves

    Practical 3 Absorption Spectra and the Beer-Lambert Law INTRODUCTION Electromagnetic radiation can be described in terms of frequency (V) and wavelength (λ). Absorbance is the capacity of a substance to absorb radiation and transmittance (the fraction radiation at a specified wavelength that passes through a sample) is physical properties that all molecules have. The purpose of experiment one was to find the maximum absorbance (λmax) occurred for both bromophenol blue and methyl orange by

    transmitters‚ which are then converted into electrical signals with an aerial (which is made out of metal to absorb the radio waves) so you can hear and see them. When done so the aerial converts this wave into an electrical signal (because of the electromagnetic waves energy exciting particles in the aerial and causing them to oscillate/vibrate and thus create an electrical current) this electrical signal is an alternating current which has the same frequency as the radio wave. This electrical energy

    CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Background of the Study Protecting the patient from unnecessary radiation exposure include not only the Cardinal Principles of radiation protection‚ but also the behaviors of imaging personnel towards each patient. It is often asked‚ "Why do we need to discuss patient protection when it is the patient who is being imaged and therefore being exposed to radiation?" "And is not all radiation exposure made within safe limits so that patient protection is not really possible?" The
