Nuclear fusion releases energy in the form of?
Various wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation.
How does the heat from the sun reach your bodies?
The Sun's energy reaches Earth in the form of "electromagnetic radiation". Most of the heat is carried by the visible light, but there are other parts of the "spectrum" of radiation involved such as the infra-red. Much of the heat reaches you after being absorbed by the Earth in various ways and given out again. This heat contains a lot more infra-red than direct sunlight.
Is there a picture of the protons and neutrons of beryllium?
No we are not able to see proton neutron or electron by visible electromagnetic radiation. So no one have picture of it, but these can be detected by various sensors.
What other types are there besides visible light?
ALL of the electromagnetic spectrum except for that narrow band that we can perceive. There are many names for various portions, mainly because they were discovered at different times by different people. For example : radio, infra-red, ultra-violet, X-rays, heat, microwaves, etc. -
What is the scientific calculation of radiation emitted from various radioactive sources is?
I would expect the total radiation to be equal to the sum of the individual radiations.
The various types of electromagnetic radiation are distinguished from each other by their?
Electromagnetic waves are classified according to their wavelength and frequency and this classification is called electromagnetic spectrum.
Nuclear fusion releases energy in the form of?
Various wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation.
How you receive heat and light from the sun?
Energy from the Sun reaches Earth as radiation from various parts of the electromagnetic spectrum. Some of this energy . Some of this energy is converted to heat. Some remains as visible light.
What are some problems in using various regions of the electromagnetic spectrum?
It is very easy to use!
What type of energy does the sun give?
Various electromagnetic radiation, heat (via infrared),
Who invented em waves?
Electromagnetic waves were predicted, by calculations, by James Clerk Maxwell. Later, different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum were either discovered or confirmed to be electromagnetic waves by various scientists.
What is the elctromagnetic background?
The constant noise in the electromagnetic spectrum, caused by various sources, from lightning on Jupiter to someone using an electric razor. There is electromagnetic energy present across the frequency spectrum, which is called 'noise' because it carries no intelligence that we can discern.

What has the longest wavelength-light waves x-rays or radio waves?
Radio Waves are in the lower end of the electromagnetic spectrum and have wavelengths between several hundred feet (AM Radio) to fractions of an inch (Microwave communications). X-Rays are high energy photons at the upper end of the electromagnetic spectrum, with wavelengths shorter than visible light, measured in nanometers to picometers. Color wise, Red is the longest visible, while Violet is the shortest wavelength of visible light. There are many graphical charts of the electromagnetic spectrum that show where the various waves fit in relation to each other, these can be found on an internet image search.
How do the various types of electromagnetic radiation differ from each other'?
Frequency, wavelength and energy are the only differences. They are all roughly equivalent as well, in that knowing one means knowing the others for EM radiation.

What is the leftover thermal energy from the big bang?
The radiation left over from the big bang is found in the microwave region of the electromagnetic spectrum. As the universe expanded and cooled, the intense hard gamma radiation that existed became radio waves in the low gigahertz region, characteristic of a temperature around 30 Kelvin.
