What kind of electromagnetic radiation will cause skin to burn?
Protection from ultraviolet radiation is what we use sunblock for. UV (ultraviolet) rays have high energy and can damage skin.
What are bad types of beta radiation?
"Bad" types of radiation are the types that hurt you. So there is no really bad types, only bad uses. See the website here for the different types: http://www.hps.org/publicinformation/ate/faqs/radiationtypes.html Then decide for yourself what is a good use and a bad use for the different types of radiation.
Do astronomers use only visible electromagnetic radiation to study space?
No. Modern-day astronomers do not use only visible electromagnetic radiation to study space. They use additional bands of the electromagnetic spectrum to study space, including radio, microwave, infra-red, ultraviolet, X-ray, and gamma ray. Darn! That's just about everything.
Why is it important that the atmosphere absorbs the sun's ultraviolet rays?
UV waves are important in the world because lots of creatures like bees use it to navigate and survive. :D
What wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation possess sufficient energy to be able to kill microorganisms?
The type of radiation that causes radiation sickness is officially called 'ionising radiation', which means that it consists of particles that carry enough energy to knock electrons out of ordinary atoms, making them electrically charged or ionised. There is also harmless radiation such as normal heat and radio waves, that is non-ionising radiation, and those are harmful only in their heating effect if they are too intense.
What type of electomagnetic radiation do you use in sun beds?
Ultraviolet radiation
What kind of electromagnetic radiation will cause skin to burn?
Protection from ultraviolet radiation is what we use sunblock for. UV (ultraviolet) rays have high energy and can damage skin.
What kind of electromagnetic radiation could be use to a cold virus?
ultraviolet :)
What are Three things that can alter cellular function?
radiation, ultraviolet light, and the use of drugs
Use the word ultraviolet in a sentence?
I can give you several sentences.The color ultraviolet is the highest color that humans can see.Ultraviolet radiation causes sunburns.The evil scientist used an ultraviolet ray beam on his victims.
How do you use the word ultraviolet in a sentence?
Ultraviolet is a type of electromagnetic radiation. It has a higher frequency than visible light. It is called ultraviolet because violet light has the highest energy of the colours. UV light has more energy, and hence ultraviolet.
What is the definition for ultraviolet radiation?
http://www.answers.com/library/Sci%252DTech%20Encyclopedia-cid-10387312 Ultraviolet radiationhttp://www.answers.com/ultraviolet+radiation?cat=technology#stency_0http://www.answers.com/ultraviolet+radiation?cat=technology#stency_1(electromagnetic radiation) Electromagnetic radiation in the http://www.answers.com/topic/wavelength range 4-400 nanometers. The ultraviolet region begins at the short wavelength (violet) limit of visibility and extends to the wavelength of long x-rays. It is loosely divided into the near (400-300 nm), far (300-200 nm), and extreme (below 200 nm) http://www.answers.com/topic/ultraviolet regions (see illustration). In the extreme ultraviolet, strong absorption of the radiation by air requires the use of evacuated apparatus; hence this region is called the vacuum ultraviolet. Important phenomena associated with ultraviolet radiation include biological effects and applications, the generation of http://www.answers.com/topic/fluorescence, and chemical analysis through characteristic absorption or fluorescence. See alsohttp://www.answers.com/topic/ultraviolet-radiation-electromagnetism. p.s. why go through all the trouble to go to answers or wikianswers.com and look for this question and since it wasnt asked or answered you posted it and waited until it was answered when you couldve just went to answers.com and typed ultraviolet radiation, where do you think i got it from.
Does the ozone in the stratosphere filter out much of the harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun?
Yes,it does. That is the main property and use of ozone layer.

Do people use radiation source for anything?
People always use radiadtion in their everyday lives, they use radiation to.............
Is ozone good or bad for us?
When it is in the stratosphere it is good for use as it blocks a portion of the sun's ultraviolet radiation. When it is at the surface it is bad for as, as it is an irritant.
Does a wireless keyboard use ultraviolet light waves to communicate with tehe computer?
The wireless keyboard or mouse uses infrared technology rather than ultraviolet rays to communicate with the computer, and as such there is no risk of radiation exposure with this.
