Why is it that a person expose to radiation is no chance for survival?

A person's chances of dying of exposure to radiation depends on how much radiation they are exposed to.Radiation is a naturally occurring phenomenon. We are exposed to radiation through the sun, for example. Radiation is also found in man-made sources (ex. appliances, medical equipment). The human body, however, can only tolerate but so much exposure to radiation at any given time without damage.Radiation is often measured in REMS. Exposure to the sun will yield approximately 5-20 REMS. If exposed to 50-100 REMS of radiation, a person would experience mild radiation poisoning, with symptoms like headache, a temporary lowering of red blood cell count and even temporary male sterility.Between 100-200 REMS, humans experience light radiation poisoning. Symptoms include mild to moderate nausea and vomiting, fatigue, immune system suppression, miscarriage and even death in 10% of cases.Between 200-300 REMS, fatality occurs in 35% of cases.Between 600-1,000 REMS, fatality is almost 100% within 2 weeks of exposure.During the explosion of the power plant Chernobyl in the Soviet Union in 1986, the workers at the plant were exposed to fatal levels of radiation. Estimates are that those who died immediately were exposed to approximately 8,000 REMS of radiation.

In which region of the electromagnetic spectrum is most of the outgoing radiation from earth?

Aside from all the radio signals generated by Man, the Earth radiates primarily in the Infrared portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. This consists of reflected and re-radiated solar heat and 'black body' radiation from the Earth itself. (The reflected radiation includes some components of shorter wavelength such as visible light, but the re-radiated component is essentially all infrared.)

Why do you ignore background radiation?

For heat transfer: Background radiation can be dismiss in many case where the main radiation source is lot more stronger and result from including of background radiation to equation give complicate hardship with very infinitesimal result. For matter of health and safety: Harmful radiation would mean those of shorter than 250 nm wavelength or so. Background radiation from any ambient temperature or man-made heat source would yield very very tiny amount of those. Some minor radioactive decay do presence in every day life including our body that contain minor amount of radioactive carbon. For matter of Cellphone Microwave hoax: You will find plenty of these nuisance E-mail warning about danger of modern hi-tech equipment emitting microwave and radio frequency that cook the egg and pop the popcorn. Most of those old background radiation hoax was debunk but new creative method of public nuisance is always on the inbox.

Is radiation is a man made disaster?

Some nuclear radiation is man-made and some is natural. Most nuclear radiation is natural - a result of various naturally occuring isotopes of different elements. Much man-made radiation is beneficial including isotopes used to combat cancer. Of course some of the man-made instances are definitely disasters such as the atom bombs dropped at the end of WWII - although it can be persuasively argued that they were a disaster only for those subject to the blast and subsequent radiation while being beneficial to those saved by the quick end to the war.
