What are the possible negative effects of infra red waves non ionising radiations?
Thermal burns
What does the ozone hole allow to reach Earth's surface?
The ozone hole allows some radiations to reach the earth's surface. These radiations are high energy UV radiations.
Which layer protects earth from dangerous ultra violet radiations of the sun?
Ozone layer protects us from the harmful UV radiations of the sun. It filters out these harmful radiations. It is present in stratosphere.
Does the biosphere protect earth from harmful radiations?
Yes it does. The ozone layer protects us from harmful radiations.
Who Discovered the Dual nature of radiations?
Louis De Broglie in 1921 discovered the dual nature of radiations
What are the possible negative effects of infra red waves non ionising radiations?
Thermal burns
What are the side effects of radioactive tracers used for sentinel node biopsy?
toxicity the radiations are ionising radiations. they cause ionisation in the body and causes free radical formation.
Can nuclear energy cause health problems?
Yes nuclear energy can cause very serious health problems, as nuclear reactions give out nuclear radiations which ionise the blood cells and can even cause blood cancer. These nuclear radiations are also called ionising radiations.----JAYRAJ Patel
Describe the uses of ionising radiation used in a home?
Smoke detectors
Is alpha ionising or non ionising?
ionising
Is gamma ionising or non ionising?
no
Is a X-ray technology use of microwave radiations?
No it uses x rays
What are the uses of each 5 radioactive elements?
- sources of energy - sources of penetrant radiations - smoke detectors - uses in medicine - uses as radioactive tracers - uses in radioactive dating of rocks
Are microwaves ionising or non-ionising?
Ionising. Betas regularly carry a couple of million electron-volts worth of energy. The energy required to ionise an electron is typically less than 100 electron-volts.
What is ionising?
It means they carry sufficient energy to detach electrons from atoms or molecules thereby ionising them.
What are the uses of electromagnetic radiations?
Radio waves, RADAR, microwaves, visible light, UV rays, and X-rays.
What does ionising power mean?
Ionising power is the energy the particle has that is capable of 'knocking' electrons off an atom
