What kinds of radiation come from the sun?
The sun emits three main types of radiation: visible light, ultraviolet (UV) light, and infrared (heat) radiation. Visible light enables us to see, UV light can cause sunburns and skin damage, while infrared radiation warms the Earth.
What kinds of solar energy are absorbed by earth's atmosphere?
ultraviolet radiation, x-rays, gamma rays......
What are some Kinds of electromagntic radiation?
Visible light, X-rays, gamma rays, infrared and ultraviolet light, microwaves and radio waves are examples of electromagnetic radiation
What is similar about infrared and ultraviolet?
Both infrared and ultraviolet are forms of electromagnetic radiation that are invisible to the human eye. They both have wavelengths outside the visible light spectrum, with infrared having longer wavelengths and lower energy, while ultraviolet has shorter wavelengths and higher energy. Both types of radiation are used in various scientific applications, such as spectroscopy and imaging.
What other kinds of radiation are detected by telescopes?
Researchers use all of these: -- optical telescopes -- radio telescopes -- x-ray telescopes -- infra-red telescopes -- ultraviolet telescopes
What type of radiation from the Sun reaches the Earth?
The radiation emitted by the Sun, is a mixture of electromagnetic waves ranging from infrared (IR) to ultraviolet rays (UV). It of course includes visible light, which is in between IR and UV in the electromagnetic spectrum. The solar wind can also be considered to be radiation from the sun as it is mostly high velocity free protons and electrons. The sun also emits neutrino radiation, but this barely interacts with matter and is hard to detect.
What is the harmful radiation released by nuclear wastes?
There are various kinds of harmful ionizing radiation. These include alpha, beta, and gamma rays; free neutrons; X-rays; and ultraviolet light. Depending on the specifics of the waste, nuclear waste can emit alpha, beta, and gamma rays, and neutrons.
What are ultraviolet telescopes used for?
Ultraviolet telescopes are used to observe celestial objects emitting ultraviolet radiation, which is not visible to the human eye. They provide valuable information about the composition, temperature, and dynamics of stars, galaxies, and other astronomical phenomena that emit UV light. This can help astronomers study the formation of stars, the evolution of galaxies, and the presence of elements in the universe.

What are the different kinds of electromagnetic waves?
Gamma rays, X - rays, Ultraviolet , visible light , Infra - red, Heat radiation, Microwaves, ultra high frequency , very high radio frequency ,radio frequencies, power frequencies.
How do electromagnetic light and visible light differ?
I've never actually heard the term "electromagnetic light" before.Visible light IS electromagnetic radiation. The only difference between light andother kinds of electromagnetic radiation ... like radio, microwave, heat, infrared,ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays ... is its wavelength (and frequency).
Why is different shielding appropriate for different kinds of radiation?
The absorption of radiation is different for each shielding material and type of radiation.
