What is more dangerous gamma or alpha rays?
alpha radiation is more dangerous than beta or gamma if ingested or inhaled because its power to ionize (or to disrupt atoms) is 20x than that of beta and gamma. but if the source is outside the body or at a distance gamma radiation is much dangerous because it could penetrate thick walls.
Why does moving further away from gamma radiation make things less dangerous?
Radiation disperses out in all directions, unless it is focused. This is true for Light. So the further away from the source, the more dispersed is the intensity. Another reason is that the further away, the radiation is absorbed by objects, even dust in the air. Thus the intensity is reduced even more. Think of a candle shinning light and the light going out as a large bubble. The further out that bubble goes, the more it has to stretch. The volume of the bubble grows by the Radius to the 3rd power. So if you Double the distance (times 2), the intensity does not drop by 1/2 but by 1/8 ---or 2 raised to the power of 3.
Which type of radiation alpha beta or gamma is most dangerous to living thing?
Gamma radiation is generally considered the most dangerous to living things because it can penetrate deeply into tissue and cause cell damage throughout the body. Alpha and beta radiation are less penetrating and can be more easily shielded against.
Where is the Nile delta not salty?
The further away from the sea the less saline it is.
Is alpha or gamma is more absorbed by matter?
Gamma radiation is more penetrating and is able to travel further through matter compared to alpha radiation. Alpha radiation, on the other hand, is absorbed quickly by even a sheet of paper or skin due to its larger mass and charge, making it less penetrating than gamma radiation.
Where is sun energy less intense?
The further you get away form the sun the less intense its radiation gets.
Where is the sun's energy less intense?
The further you get away form the sun the less intense its radiation gets.
Why are gamma rays less ionising?
it does not
What is the mass of gamma in atomic mass units?
If you mean a gamma photon, it is mass-less.
Is a gamma ray a transmitter?
yes it can be used as a transmitter as well because few t.v. remotes used to have very light gamma rays to command t.v. sets but gamma rays are dangerous as they can cause cancerANS2:No, there is no such thing as a gamma wave transmitter. That implies that a man-made device is producing the radiation. In the case where electromagnetic waves of the same wavelength as gamma are produced artificially, those waves are called x-rays. Yes, there are x-ray transmitters. Gamma radiation is produced from natural processesX-rays are (usually) artificially produced gamma radiationAs for gamma ray t.v. remotes: the radiation used for the signal is way less energetic than gamma...less energetic than visible light. They all use infra red.
What type of perspective gives less focus to objects further away?
A one-point perspective gives less focus to objects further away. In this type of perspective, all parallel lines converge to a single vanishing point on the horizon line, causing objects in the distance to appear smaller and with less detail.
How gravity gets less as you move away from a planet?
the further you are the less it gets due to the insrenity between the two synoyns. this is have friction is made.
