How you solve percentage greater then 100 percent?

Same as percentages less than 100. Percentages greater than 100 will reult in a number that is greater than the original, that's all.


Is x-rays radiation most easily stopped by air?

no x-ray or gamma ray radiation can be stopped or diluted by air. if that was the truth, a greater portion of the radiation would be stopped (absorbed, destroyed ) by atmospheric air in Chernobil's incidence. Radiation from Ukraine reached to Greece, Sweden and to many other places!


What form of radiation has the greater frequency?

Gamma rays.


How do you determine percentages greater than 100?

To determine percentages less than 100, multiply the number by x/100. The same holds for percentages over 100 - for example, finding 250 percent of a number is equivalent to multiplying the number by 250/100, that is, 2.5.


How do you read cicle graphs?

Circle graphs are the same as pie charts and data is out in percentages of 360 degrees in sectors of the circle so as the greater the sector then greater is the data

What is absorbed light?

All molecules will absorb light to a greater or lesser degree


Why do different parts of Earths surface receive different amounts of energy from the sun?

The higher the latitude the greater the thickness of atmosphere through which the sun's radiation has to pass, hence the lese energy reaching the ground.


Are cerenkov radiation harmful?

Cerenkov radiation is also spelled as Cherenkov is an electromagnetic radiation that comes for particles as they travel at speeds greater that the speed of light. The radiation if seen is often blue and is not harmful.


Is Radiation only absorbed by gas in an interstellar cloud?

With all due respect, an interstellar cloud is, by its definition, gas, plasma and/or dust (molecular particulates) in greater quantities than normally found in interstellar space. So, perhaps the answer is No, because there are other elements present.


Is radiation heat?

No... radiation is the movement of waves and particles, and influence of movement upon all other matter around it or in it's path... What happens though, is that it causes (excellerates) the atoms in any material it encounters (and that material becomes hot, the greater the radiation, the greater and more violently it will be heated)...


How are energy and wavelength of electromagnet radiation related?

The greater the energy the shorter the wavelength.
