What else can I help you with?
What 'ultra' produces radiation?
ultraviolet produces radiation.
How does the ozone protect us from ultaviolet radiation?
Ozone absorbs the UV rays. These are harmful radiations of the sun.
Do you feel hot when you sit by a fire because of ultaviolet radiation?
it's the heat coming off of the fire that's making you warm
What is strong ultaviolet radiation reaches this country because the osone layer abpove it is thin ultraviolet radation damages the skin ans cause cancer?
UV are fatal rays of the sun. They are blocked by ozone in atmosphere.
How the ozone is able to protect the earth from the harmful amounts of ultaviolet radiation?
Ozone in the Earth's stratosphere absorbs and scatters incoming ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun. This absorption prevents most harmful UV-B and all UV-C radiation from reaching the Earth's surface, protecting life from the damaging effects of excessive UV exposure. Ozone acts as a shield that helps maintain a balance of UV radiation for life to thrive on Earth.
If ultraviolet light has little penetrating power what will it produce?
yes, it will. But, the ozone layer will pretect us fron ultaviolet rays. PS. Ultraviolet rays come from the Sun!!
Which layer of the earth's atmosphere protects the earth from these dangerous ultaviolet radiations of the sun?
Ozone layer protects us from the harmful UV rays. This is present in the stratospheric region of atmosphere.
Type of penetrating ionising radiation consisting of electromagnetic waves?
There are three types of radiation: Alpha, Beta, and Gamma. Alpha radiation is the emission of Alpha particles, which consists of two protons bound to two neutrons. Beta radiation is the emissions of electrons, and gamma radiation is the emission of photons. Alpha particles are made up of 2 protons and 2 neutrons, and can be blocked by a single sheet of paper. Beta particles are electrons and can be stopped by a 3/4 inch block of wood. Gamma particles are photons, and they go straight through the 3/4 inch wood, but lead can stop them more. In total, gamma radiation has the greatest penetrating power.
What is the common name for infrared radiation?
Infrared radiation, infrared, heat radiation.
Does ultaviolet waves have more energy than x-rays?
No, X-rays have more energy than ultraviolet waves. X-rays have shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies compared to ultraviolet waves, which results in higher energy levels.
Cosmic radiation and radiation from terrestrial sources are examples of?
Natural background radiation
What is The definition of secondary radiation is .?
Secondary radiation refers to the radiation that is produced when primary radiation interacts with matter, leading to the emission of additional radiation. This secondary radiation can have different properties and energies compared to the original primary radiation.
