What instrument measures noise level?
Sound level meters Loudness meters Noise dosimeter
Is a dosimeter a radiation badge that contains a sensitized film?
A dosimeter based on sensitized film is one kind of radiation dosimeter, but there are other different kinds, and film badges are becoming less common. One widely known dosimeter is the direct read "pen style" electroscope dosimeter. Another "pen style" dosimeter is a miniature ionization chamber, but like the film badge dosimeter requires special equipment to read it later in a lab. Probably the most commonly used type of dosimeter outside of emergency response is the TLD, or thermoluminescent dosimeter.
Why is a noise dosimeter calibrated at 114dB?
There is no technical reason to calibrate a dosimeter at any one particular sound level, and dosimeters may be calibrated at a number of different levels. The important thing is that the calibration includes sound levels relevant to the noise that will be measured. One particular model of calibrator happens to produce a sound of 114 dB. Others use 93 dB and other levels
What is a dosimeter?
A dosimeter is an instrument that measures the amount of hazardous material to which something or someone has been cumulatively exposed. The most common is the radiation dosimeter, which measures a person's or object's exposure to radiation.
Do dosimeter badges detect any exposure to alpha particles when worn by radiation workers?
No, alpha particles will not be detected by dosimeter badges.
Who invented the radiation dosimeter?
They are invented by NASA.
What is pen dosimeter?
A pen dosimeter is a dosimeter the size and shape of a pen. In many cases they are radiation quartz fiber dosimeters made during the cold war for civil defense workers in the case of a nuclear attack. Of these the CD V-742 is the most common with over three million being produced.
What does a dosimeter alarm indicate?
Radiation is being releases from the reactor
What in a automobile engine serves no purpose but without it the engine does not work?
Noise. Without noise, it can't work. Noise is in an engine, and without it does not work. Every engine has to make some kind of noise, internal or external, inside or outside the engine.
What should be used for the detection or collection of radiological material?
Thermoluminescent dosimeter
What should not be used for detection or collection of radiological materials?
Thermoluminescent dosimeter
How does a room noise detector work?
no
