Best Answer

None.

All types of radiation emitted by an exploding nuclear device are also emitted under other conditions, including natural conditions.

These types of radiation are: alpha, beta, gamma, neutron, x-rays, IR, visible light, UV, EMP.

Some types of naturally present radiation NOT produced by exploding nuclear devices are: cosmic rays, muon showers, proton.

What kind of radiation is only emitted during detonation?

detonation of an atomic bomb? I believe it is gamma radiation.Fallout emits large amounts of gamma.It is neutrons.


What radiation is given off by a nuclear bomb?

prompt (at time of explosion) - neutron, gamma, x-ray, UV, visible, thermal (IR), some radio.delayed (fallout) - beta, gamma, some alpha.Types of radiation called "ionizing radiation" - alpha, beta, gamma, x-ray, neutron.


Radiation is one of the long-term effects of a nuclear detonation wich of the fallowing type of radiation is emitted only during detonation?

Mostly Uranium 235, Uranium 238, and Plutonium 239 Also fission fragments. If your talking about any kind of radiation then it would be thermal radiation from the heat blast. When you split the Uranium atom you get 2 Neutrons, 2 protons + 2 fission fragments. 1 of the 2 neutrons will be uranium 235 and the other plutonium 239. the radiation from a nuclear blast will at first be heat. This will be continious until the energy that created it is depleated. Note Uranium 238 is weaker than Uranium 235 and it absorbs neutrons. Uranium 235 has a far greater Neutron density (99.3%) Uranium 238 = (0.7%)


The wavelengths of radiation emitted by Earth are?

they are longer than those emitted by the sun.


What is a fall out shelter?

A nuclear fall out shelter is anywhere you can hide from the effects of a nuclear detonation. When a nuclear device is detonated above the ground it causes debris to be tossed into the troposphere and sometime stratosphere. This then falls back to earth as radioactive particles. A fall out shelter usually has three feet of soil above it to absorb the gamma radiation that is emitted from these particles. In most cases the radioactive particles dissipate quickly and people have to only be in a fallout shelter for a few weeks. Underground shelters also act against blast and thermal radiation (heat radiation) from a nuclear detonation. http://www.waverage.com has more about this.


How do you watch weather from space?

There are weather sattellites that orbit the Earth that can detect reflected radiation, emitted radiation, or radiation reflected only by water vapour as well as satellites that emit microwave radiation to detect the clouds or precipitation.


If you were Becquerel what are some possible tests that you can do to identify the radiation emitted by uranium salt?

In the time of Becquerel only the photographic plate.


Is infrared radiation only emitted from the center of hot solid objects?

No. While most infrared radiation is from the center of hot solid objects, some of it is not. The sun is plasma (not solid) and it emits infrared radiation. Also, infrared radiation can be emitted by the friction in between objects


If clouds absorb only a small amount of solar radiation how is Earth's atmosphere heated?

From the surface. Solar radiation is absorbed by the surface and emitted at a longer wavelength, which is essentially heat.


What is the heat capacity of dark colors vs light colors?

The darkness or lightness by itself doesn't affect the heat capacity, only how easily radiation will be absorbed - and emitted.The darkness or lightness by itself doesn't affect the heat capacity, only how easily radiation will be absorbed - and emitted.The darkness or lightness by itself doesn't affect the heat capacity, only how easily radiation will be absorbed - and emitted.The darkness or lightness by itself doesn't affect the heat capacity, only how easily radiation will be absorbed - and emitted.
