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

The Effect of Nuclear Energy on Human * As we all know‚ nuclear energy is a non-renewable energy. The science of atomic radiation‚ atomic change and nuclear fission was developed from 1895 to 1945‚ much of it in the last six of those years (WMA‚ 2010). Since then human have begun expanding their research on nuclear energy and sadly during year 1939 to year 1949‚ nuclear energy was only used for creating atomic bomb by many of the countries back then such as Japan‚ Germany‚ United States of

something having to do with radiation. This should not be a major concern because “Millimeter wave energy is much lower than that of X-rays‚ so it poses fewer health concerns” (Hamalainen). Getting a scan is practically equivalent “…to 3to9 of the radiation received through normal daily living” (Martin). “Natural background radiation exposes us to about 2.4 millisieverts of radiation annually‚ which is about 24‚000 times the high end estimate of 0.1 microsievert of radiation from a backscatter airport

Impact of Prenatal Cocaine Exposure Prenatal nicotine exposure has been found to have avoidable effects on children and their mothers. Studies have shown that prenatal exposure can cause not only mental‚ but also physical harm on children that can ultimately cause life-course harm (Cho‚ Frijters‚ Zhang‚ Miller & Gruen‚ 2013). For example‚ a study resulted that nicotine exposure during prenatal can have damaging effects on the development of drugs in the offspring and ultimately cause wheezing in

SUMMARY On – the – job training is one way of obtaining the proper exposure‚ experience and education. On – the – job training does not only develop the intrapersonal skills of an individual but also his/her interpersonal skills. Since the on – the – job trainee is exposed to the different environment of having a job‚ it makes him/her ready as to whatever constraints he/she will be facing in the actual work in the future. Exposure‚ experience and education – these are the essential characteristics

Ultrasonography consist of the use of sound waves and is not a form of ionizing radiation. There have been no news of recognized conflicting fetal effects for diagnostic ultrasonography measures‚ as well as duplex Doppler imaging. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration limits the spatial-peak temporal average intensity of ultrasound transducers

visualisation of the pattern of distribution of radiation. In general‚ the radiation consists of X-rays‚ gamma (g ) or beta (b ) rays‚ and the recording medium is a photographic film. For classical X-rays‚ the specimen to be examined is placed between the source of radiation and the film‚ and the absorption and scattering of radiation by the specimen produces its image on the film. In contrast‚ in autoradiography the specimen itself is the source of the radiation‚ which originates from radioactive material

that uses microwaves is radar. The radar uses microwave radiation to detect characteristics‚ range‚ speed of remote objects. Dangers That Have Been Reported: When injury from microwaves occur it usually results from insulated or stopped heating in the body. Exposure to microwave radiation can produce cataracts or clouding in the eye that destroys the passage of light and varies from slight to complete opacity. So exposure to microwave radiation can cause gradual blindness. One Scientist Associated
