What is the difference between nuclear radiation and heat radiation?
Heat radiation is infrared radiation, which is a relatively low frequency radiation, slightly lower than that of visible light. Nuclear radiation includes a variety of types, including X rays and gamma rays, which are very high frequency radiation, and which are consequently much more dangerous, and can cause radiation sickness. There are also other types of nuclear radiation such as alpha rays, beta rays, and neutrons, all of which are in the form of subatomic particles rather than electromagnetic radiation.
How is it possible for a single electron to produce so many different wavelengths and frequencies?
A single electron can produce different types of radiation. Radiation, frequency, and wavelength all rely on each other. If an electron can produce multiple types of radiation, it can also produce different wavelengths and frequencies, because the wavelengths and frequencies are dependent on the radiation type.
What type of radiation is emitted only during detonation?
None. All types of radiation emitted by an exploding nuclear device are also emitted under other conditions, including natural conditions. These types of radiation are: alpha, beta, gamma, neutron, x-rays, IR, visible light, UV, EMP. Some types of naturally present radiation NOT produced by exploding nuclear devices are: cosmic rays, muon showers, proton.
Is it true that nuclear radiation comes from the decay of atomic nuclei?
Yes, the decay of unstable atomic nuclei is the source of nuclear radiation.
Which radiation is also called effective radiation?
terrestrial

Do clouds reflect sun's radiation?
Some of it but not all. They can also retain some types of radiation, especially thermal radiation.

What is the name of the radiation that can increase mutation in humans?
There are a number of types of radiation that can cause mutation in humans.Gamma radiation is probably the one you were thinking of, but ultraviolet radiation can also cause mutation.Pretty much any kind of radiation that causes mutation will almost always cause cancer, as a result.

Can doctors use radiation to treat illnesses?
Yes, there are several diseases that are treated with radiation, including some types of cancer. Radiation is also used in many diagnostic imaging machines, so that we can see inside the body without having to cut into it.
What are the three types of salmon?
poo and choclate and also salmon
What are the three types of master data discussed in this exercise?
The three types of master data discussed are reference data and enterprise data. Lastly, there is also market master data.
What are the three ways to transfer thermal energy?
conduction ,convection ,radiation,there are also many others but there very rare
What are three reasons radiation sickness symptoms vary?
Individual sensitivity Radiation dose absorbed type of radiationRadiation sickness varies based on the amount of expsure of radiation and how particular person's body reacts to the radiation poisoning. It also depends on how the radiation poisoning entered the body: Oral, inhalation or total body exposure.
