We might call this medical imaging via X-ray, or taking an X-ray. The X-ray machine is aimed directly at the patient, and the incident radiation has a specific target on his/her body.

primary radiation


The sun's radiation is most pronounced when it's strikes?

The sun's radiation is most pronounced when it strikes directly overhead, which occurs around solar noon. At this time, the sunlight passes through the least amount of atmosphere, allowing more radiation to reach the Earth's surface.


The atmosphere and clouds directly absorb about20 percent of the solar radiation that strikes earth How does the sun indirectly warm the atmosphere?

Earth's land and sea absorb solar radiation, then reradiate it to the air


Where does earth receive the most radiation?

The equator receives the most solar radiation because sunlight strikes the Earth directly there, creating more intense heat and energy. This is due to the angle of the Earth's axial tilt and rotation.


What will happen when light strikes a opaque object?

When light strikes an opaque object, the object absorbs the light energy and does not transmit it through the material. This absorption of light causes the object to become warmer. The energy is either emitted as thermal radiation or reflected off the surface.


What strikes the equator more directly?

sunlight


What product is formed when solar radiation strikes an oxygen molecule?

When solar radiation strikes an oxygen molecule (O2), it can lead to the formation of ozone (O3) in the stratosphere. Ozone plays a crucial role in the ozone layer, absorbing and filtering out harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun.


What kind of radiation that can produce charged particles from atoms or molecules it strikes?

ionizing


Why does the thermosphere have the highest temperature of all the atmosphere layers?

It is affected most directly by the suns radiation


What kind of radiation do we experience as invisible heat?

Invisible heat radiated from objects is in the form of infrared radiation. This type of radiation is not visible to the human eye but can be felt as heat when it strikes the skin.


What type of radiation causes temperature to rise?

Infrared radiation is responsible for causing temperatures to rise. When infrared radiation strikes an object, it is absorbed and converted into heat, leading to an increase in the object's temperature.


Why does the thermosphere have the highest temperature all the atmosphere layers?

IT is closest to the sun
