chemistry is known as today. Taken from the encyclopedia‚ commonly known as Wikipedia‚ is the origins of this fascinating type of chemistry. After the discovery of X-rays by Wilhelm Röntgen‚ a French chemist Henri Becquerel began to work on ionizing radiation and investigated the relationship between phosphorescence and the blackening of photographic plates. See the “Discovery of Radioactivity” article’s diagram below at end of paragraph. Becquerel discovered that‚ with

spread out from the focal spot‚ through the tube window and onto the region to be examined. How is an image formed? X-ray films that are used in dental radiography consist on an emulsion/gelatine mix containing chemicals that are sensitive to x-ray radiation. This is a silver halide - either bromide or chloride. The emulsion/gelatine mix and their suspension is set onto a flexible‚ transparent tinted blue base. Emulsion is used in all types of analogue photography‚ but the type used in x-ray photography

Blackbody Radiation Lab 11 Go to http://phet.colorado.edu/simulations/sims.php?sim=Blackbody_Spectrum and click on Run Now. 1) In this lab‚ you will use the Blackbody Spectrum Simulation to investigate how the spectrum of electromagnetic radiation emitted by objects is affected by the object’s temperature. In this simulation‚ you can input the temperature and observe the spectrum of the radiation emitted. a) The temperature of stars in the universe varies with the type of star and the age

Wea`am Mohammad Al-jarie Dr. mokhleed zaza physics Medical applications of x-ray Introduction: X-radiation (composed of X-rays) is a form of electromagnetic radiation. X-rays have a wavelength in the range of 0.01 to 10 nanometers‚ corresponding to frequencies in the range 30 petahertz to 30 exahertz (3×1016 Hz to 3×1019 Hz) X-rays up to about 10 keV (10 to 0.10 nm wavelength) are classified as "soft" X-rays‚ and from about 10 to 120 keV (0.10 to 0.01 nm wavelength) as "hard" X-rays‚ due

of these differences beta particles can move through paper while alpha particles can’t. Why are gamma rays so dangerous? Gamma rays have the highest penetration ability of the three types of particles. The other two particles can cause cancers or radiation burns on the skin. Because of the gamma rays high penetration it can cause damage throughout the body and is a higher cancer risk. Student 6 page 2: High Not Achieved What are nuclear fuel elements?

Nuclear technology is one of the growing industries with varying applications ranging from medicine‚ mining‚ agriculture‚ hydrology‚ industry and research [1]. This technology is mainly dependent on the radiation and radioisotopes of some elements. The mining and agricultural applications of nuclear technology can be very useful in South Africa as its applications have been proved to be more efficient practical and convenient to implement.
