    they are invisible or silent to humans without man-made devices. One small change in a wave can make a world of difference in its entire energy outcome. Waves are very interesting items that effect our lives both positively and negatively. UV. Radiation in sunlight is divided up into three separate parts which are based on wavelengths‚ or more commonly read as energy. These parts are UV-A ‚ UV-B.‚ and UV-C.. UV-A. is 320-400 nanometers. In general shorter wavelengths are more harmful to living organisms

 1. Heat Transfer • Thermal radiation = infra-red radiation (beyond red part of visible spectrum) • Surface of sun is 5500 degrees. • Greenhouse effect is the idea that the earth is a greenhouse‚ and the atmosphere is glass that stops substances exiting or entering. • DARK‚ MATT SURFACES emit more radiation than shiny‚ light ones‚ and absorb radiation better. • Conduction: free electrons are given energy where heated and diffuse – this energy is passed on as electrons

    nuclei stable and others unstable? Whether nuclei are stable or unstable depend on their neutron:proton ratio. What happens when an unstable nucleus emits an alpha or beta minus particle? Alpha radiation consists of alpha particles which each comprise of 2 protons and 2 neutrons. Beta radiation consists of fast moving electrons. A beta minus particle is emitted because a neutron is changing into a proton. What is a photon? A photon is a ‘packet’ of quantum of electromagnetic waves. An

    speed is different. The refraction of light when it passes from a fast medium to a slow medium bends the light ray toward the normal to the boundary between the two media. The definition of produced visible light means when the electromagnets radiation meets the human eye. The first example of produced is a glow stick because it produces its own light . Another example of produced visible light is Fireworks. Also a vapor lamp is a good example of produced light . The definition of reflected means

    disk-shaped plastic enclosure about 150 millimeters and 25 millimeters thick. Figure 1 In the Ionization detectors have an ionization chamber and the ionizing radiation. The ionizing radiation is a minute quantity of americium 241‚ which is a source of alpha particles. The radiation passes through the ionization chamber and the air-filled space between the two electrodes. Smoke that enters the chamber will absorb the alpha particles and will reduce the ionization and
