What is more dangerous high frequency radiation or low frequency radiation?
heya. Okay so I had the same question for a sheet i had to do in my physics lesson.The harm done to humans by EM radiation depends on the intensity and wavelength of the radiation.high frequency radiation has more potential to damage human DNA than longer wavelengths (Low frequency). That's why UV radiation tends to promote skin cancer while visible light has no known tendency to do so. Short-wavelength radiation can also carry more energy than long-wavelength radiation of the same intensity.Long-wavelength radiation is more known for its tendency to cause human tissue to heat up, which can cause death more quickly than short-wavelength radiation. Microwave energy is one example of this; fairly high-intensity microwaves are used to heat food in a microwave oven.So really high frequency is more dangerous, such as gamma rays :)source: Is_electromagnetic_radiation_harmful_to_humans
Radiation on tranformers?
Very low frequency.
What are the forms of radiation?
Alpha, Beta, Neutron, X-ray, Gamma, Neutron radiation, Electromagnetic radiation, Visible light, Infrared, Microwave, Radio waves, Very low frequency (VLF), Extremely low frequency (ELF), Thermal radiation (heat) and Black body radiation.
Why does electromagnetic radiation have the lowest energy?
Electromagnetic radiation has the lowest energy due to its long wavelength and low frequency. In the electromagnetic spectrum, radiation with longer wavelengths, such as radio waves, carries lower energy compared to higher-frequency radiation like gamma rays.
What is low frequency radiation called?
LF-RF or low frequency radio frequencies. This spans frequencies from just below the AM radio band through the shortwave radio bands.
Long wavelength and a low frequency is what type of radiation?
This type of radiation would be classified as radio waves. Radio waves have long wavelengths and low frequencies, making them suitable for communication and broadcasting purposes.
Which will have more energy a high frequency waves or a low-frequency wave?
High frequency waves will have more energy than low-frequency waves. This is because energy is directly proportional to frequency in waves - the higher the frequency, the higher the energy.
How does the frequency of radiant energy relate to the absolute temperature of the radiating source?
A low temp source emits low-frequency, long wavelength waves. A medium temp source emits medium frequency, medium wavelength waves. A high temp source emits high frequency, short wavelength waves.
Is low frequency dangerous and how does it impact our health and well-being?
Low frequency itself is not inherently dangerous to human health. However, prolonged exposure to low frequency noise, such as from industrial machinery or traffic, can have negative effects on our health and well-being. This can lead to issues such as sleep disturbances, stress, and even potential long-term health problems like cardiovascular issues. It is important to limit exposure to low frequency noise to protect our overall health.
In classical physics how does an atomic oscillator behave when heated in terms of energy emissions?
The oscillator starts at relatively low frequency and emits electromagnetic radiation of relatively low frequency (or long wavelength) and low intensity. As the heating continues, the frequency of oscillation also increases as does the frequency of the emitted radiation and the intensity of the radiation. A graph of intensity vs. wavelength would start high on the left (at short wavelengths) and fall off to the right exponentially to low intensity at long wavelengths. This graph would be at odds with the experimentally established graph of intensity vs. wavelength(which shows low intensity at short wavelengths) because the classical assumption that frequency of oscillation can increase continuously as the oscillators are heated is not correct. Frequency of oscillation can increase only in integral multiples of the fundamenal frequency.
What color of light was a highest frequency?
Violet. Recall VIBGYOR. Violet at the high frequency extreme and Red is at the low frequency extreme
Does gamma rays have a low frequency and a short wavelength?
No, gamma rays have a high frequency and a short wavelength compared to other forms of electromagnetic radiation, such as visible light. They are the most energetic and penetrating type of electromagnetic radiation.
