How and when does the sun reflect on the suns rays?
The sun emits sun rays it does not reflect them.
What radiation does gold-198 emit?
Gold-198 predominantly emits a mono-energetic gamma ray of energy 0.412 MeV. It also emits beta rays of much higher energy than that of gamma rays.
How is heat transferred to sidewalks?
The Sun emits heat in the infrared wavelengths. The sidewalk is warmed by those direct rays.
Is the suns rays gamma rays?
No, the Sun mostly emits visible light rays. A small amount of gamma rays might be emitted, but they would be insignificant. Inside the Sun, gamma rays are produced but they never escape in that form. The super-heated gases around the sun in the chromosphere emit mostly higher energy xrays, UV rays but also some gamma rays. Natural gamma rays sources are thought to be the most energetic events in the Universe. Although Supernovae seem to be the source of some, others are still somewhat mysterious.
Why can nuclear reactors be dangerous?
Nuclear reactors are dangerous because they emit ionizing radiation that damages the body. Nuclear reactors rely on fission so when the atom splits Uranium or Plutonium emits alpha particles, beta particles, x-rays, and gama rays. The most "dangerous" is gamma rays since they can cross though anything but layers of concrete and/lead
What is a word for Sends out in rays or waves?
Emits (?)
The strongest energy waves that the Sun emits are?
Ultraviolet rays or infared rays
How and when does the sun reflect on the suns rays?
The sun emits sun rays it does not reflect them.
Uranium emits particles and rays spontaneously through this process?
radioactivity
Are gamma rays emitted whenever a nuclear bomb goes off?
yes. the fallout also emits gamma rays.
What radiation does gold-198 emit?
Gold-198 predominantly emits a mono-energetic gamma ray of energy 0.412 MeV. It also emits beta rays of much higher energy than that of gamma rays.
How is the nucleus affected in gamma decay?
When the nucleus emits an alpha or beta particle, it is in the exited state. To return to the ground state, it has to emit energy. It emits this energy in the form of gamma rays. There is no change in the atomic no or the mass no when it emits gamma rays, but it does decrease the energy in the nucleus when gamma rays are emitted
How does electron capture generate X-rays?
The capture creates a "hole", or missing electron, that is filled by a higher energy electron that emits X-rays.
What are three emissions?
The answer will depend on emissions from what? The sun, for example, emits light, uv rays and neutrinos.
Why we find alpha beta and gamma rays in many radioactive elements?
That's what an atom emits when it decays.
How is heat transferred to sidewalks?
The Sun emits heat in the infrared wavelengths. The sidewalk is warmed by those direct rays.
What is the definition of emits?
emit means to give off, to expel, to send out, or discharge; as of light, heat, or radiation, vapor, etc.; "The ozone layer blocks some harmful rays which the sun emits" Or "sour milk emits a bad odor".
