Does radiation involve heat passing through particles?
Heat doesn't pass through particles. On an atomic or sub-atomic level, heat is the speed with which the particles are either vibrating or moving. Some kinds of radiation are related to the temperature of the particles that emit the radiation, other kinds are not.
What are the 3 kinds of heat transfer?
The three kinds of heat transfer are conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction is the transfer of heat through a material by direct contact, convection is the transfer of heat through a fluid (liquid or gas), and radiation is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves.
What type of energy is the sum of the two kinds that are in all objects?
Radiation.
What are three kinds of heat tranfer?
The three types of heat transfer are conduction (heat transfer through a material without any movement of the material itself), convection (heat transfer through the movement of fluids like air or water), and radiation (heat transfer through electromagnetic waves).
What are the three kinds of radiation?
· Alpha - a helium nucleus · Beta - a high speed electron · Gamma - an electromagnetic radiation of wavelength about 10-14 m.
What kinds of solar energy are absorbed by earth's atmosphere?
ultraviolet radiation, x-rays, gamma rays......
Where is the cosmic rays radiation located on the electromagnetic spectrum in relation to other kinds of radiation?
Cosmic rays are not part of the EM spectrum -- they are high energy charged particles.
What diseases is a cancer?
Cancers are of many kinds and can occur in almost any part of the body. While they involve mutations in normal cells, these mutations are not necessarily inherited, but can be caused by radiation -- even normal background radiation -- or by other causes. Genes. A+

What forms of radiation are used medically?
There are three kinds of radiation useful to medical personnel: alpha, beta, and gamma radiation.
Why is different shielding appropriate for different kinds of radiation?
The absorption of radiation is different for each shielding material and type of radiation.
