Answer: Radiation has a profound effect on matter. Particularly in forms where it has high energy. There are basically two kinds of radiation‚ and they are electromagnetic energy and particulate radiation. Low energy electromagnetic radiation isn’t generally hazardous‚ as long as the field strengths are low. You wouldn’t want to stand in front of a radar antenna when it’s radiating‚ but we are swept by low power electromagnet energy all the time. Those so-called radio waves are everywhere. Light

insufficient physical exercise. However‚ not all known causes of cancer such as ionizing radiation are covered to this extent. How big of a role does ionizing radiation play in cancer deaths? Is it even worth noticing? First‚ in order to understand why ionizing radiation leads to cancer‚ an important distinction must be made between ionizing and nonionizing radiation. “Radiation is ionizing if the energy of the radiation suffices to remove an electron from an atom to create an ion. Conversely‚ if the energy

Concepts of Radiation Radiation * Emission of energy from an atom and the transmission of this energy through space. * Energy propagated in a material medium or space. * Energy in transit. What are the types of radiation? * Radiation is of two general types in our environment. * They are called non-ionizing and ionizing. Ionization * the energy transferred to the electrons causes them to be pulled away or removed from an atom entirely. * The result is the

Adaptive Radiation An example of adaptive radiation occurring after a mass extinction is the extinction that killed off the dinosaurs. What caused this mass extinction was when a massive comet hit earth‚ off the Yucatan Peninsula. However‚ the mammals that survived this catastrophic event for the most part‚ survived because they could burrow in holes for shelter. Regardless‚ about 90% of all life on earth was destroyed. This led to an opportunity for the surviving plants and animals to disperse

Radiation Exposure Do you know much radiation you are exposed to everyday? Many people are not aware of the radiation levels around them on a daily basis. I believe that exposure to radiation should be minimal. I think protection and prevention is vital. Being aware of the health risks and what can be done to protect yourself should be a well known piece of knowledge. If followed‚ this knowledge can help reduce radiation exposure levels. Exposure to radiation is higher today than it has ever

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

Applications of Radiation in the Field of Medicine Overview: With the discovery of radiation in the late 1800’s by Antoine Henri Becquerel‚ Marie Curie‚ and Pierre Curie‚ the powers of the atom were seemingly multiplied greatly. With this new power of the atom also came new uses for it‚ especially in the
