What are the elements that are used for plastics to shield Bremsstrahlung?
Plexiglas and lead are frequently used.
How can we calculate the power of bremsstrahlung with Z and a mass?
I am not sure what "Z" refers to. In any case, I don't think you have enough information if you only know Z and a mass.The calculation for the power of Bremsstrahlung can be found in the Wikipedia article, under "Larmar Formula". It seems that you need some additional information, such as the acceleration.
Is alpha radiation a ionization radiation?
Yes, alpha radiation is an ionizing radiation.
Would you classify radiation as ionizing radiation?
Yes, but there are a number of radiation besides ionizing radiation.
Give an example of infrared radiation and uv radiation?
Infrared radiation in an stove oven and uv radiation in a tanning bed.
What is bremsstrahlung?
Bremsstrahlung, rather simplified, is electomagnetic radiation produced by the deceleration of a charged particle when deflected by another charged particle, typically an electron by an atomic nucleus.
What type of radiation is produced by the sudden slowing and direction change of the electron stream as kinetic energy?
Bremsstrahlung (Braking) radiation
What is the difference between bremsstrahlung and characteristic radiation?
Bremstrahlung is German for "braking radiation." It refers to radiation that is associated with the positive or negative acceleration of charged particles. The energy of the emitted photon equals the loss of kinetic energy of the particle. Characteristic radiation refers to groups of discrete wavelengths characteristic of the emitting element.

Are Beta particles are electrons that originate in the nucleus?
The primary difference between gamma-rays and x-rays is that gamma-rays originate in , while x-rays are created either by transitions between energy states of orbital electrons or as bremsstrahlung radiation.
How may bremsstrahlung production be minimized?
by using shielding material with low Z..

What are Bremsstrahlung X-rays?
bremssstrahlung effect-In x ray radiation the bombarding electron or photon penetrate the k-shell and approach to the nucleus and gets deflected. it approaches fast but leaves less quickly losing some or all of its energy.here the electrons are deflected and after deflection electrons follow a new lower energy band
What is the radiation source for x-ray waves?
X-rays are produced by the electric field of an atom. This is usually discussed in terms of characteristic X-radiation and bremsstrahlung. Most X-rays in hospital X-ray kit are the latter (the exception is mammography) . Electrons are fired from an electron gun at a tungsten target. When the electrons pass close to a tungsten atom they interact with electric field. This deflects the incoming electrons, slowing them down, reducing their energy. The excess energy is given of as X-rays.
