What type of radiation can be blocked by clothing?
alpha
Which type ionizing radiation can be blocked by clothing?
Alpha particle radiation can be stopped by just a few centimetres of air. Therefore, clothing will certainly block penetration. Potentially, low energy Beta radiation could also be blocked by thick clothing.
What is processes of radiation?
go onto Google images and type in 'radiation diagram' look at second image with a cartoon sun in it- for that would be your answer
Infrared radiation is what type of energy?
Infrared radiation is a type of electromagnetic energy
What type of radiation is easiest to shield?
Alpha radiation
What type of radiation can be blocked by clothing?
alpha
What type of nuclear radiation can be blocked by a block of lead Beta particles or alpha particles?
Both Beta and alpha particles can be blocked by a block of lead. Alpha particles can even be blocked by a sheet of paper, and beta particles can be blocked by a thin aluminium plate.
Using a 2-cm-thick piece of cardboard over a radiation source would be most effective for protecting against which type of radiation?
Alpha i think and maybe beta. it will be beta because alpha can be stopped with a sheet of paper while beta is stronger but gamma will pierce rite through a 2-cm cardboard

What is a type of radiation that passes through glass but can be blocked by treated glass?
AnswerI believe it would be microwaves because when was the last time you heated up a tv dinner in your own microwave an got heated up from the radiation?
Which of the three kinds of radiation is most penetrating?
Gamma ray, by far. Alfa can be blocked by as little as a piece of notebook paper, buy Gamma (from sources such as a reactor core) will pass through 6 feet for stailsteel-lined concrete and can give a leathal dose in as little as 20 minutes.
Which type of radiation barely passes through a piece of paper?
Alpha radiation, due to its weight and slow speed, can barely passed through the thinnest of objects. Because of its properties, alpha radiation cannot travel far distances either.
Which type of radiation is easiest to shield?
The type of radiation that is easiest to shield are alpha particles. They are also the least harmful. Alpha particles consist of two protons and two neutrons bound together into a particle identical to a helium nucleus.

What would happen if nuclear radiation was in a box?
it depends of the type of box and also how much radiation would be put so with the info u provideed it is un-sure
Infrared radiation is what type of energy?
Infrared radiation is a type of electromagnetic energy
What type of radiation does radioactivity produces?
The Type Of Radiation That It Produce Is The Gamma Ray!
