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 electromagnetic radiation are used for n security pen?

Security pens often use ultraviolet (UV) light as a form of electromagnetic radiation to verify the authenticity of documents or currency. When the UV light hits security features printed in UV-reactive ink, it causes them to glow or become visible, helping to distinguish between genuine and counterfeit items.


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.


Is there UV in microwave ovens?

No, microwave ovens do not emit ultraviolet (UV) radiation. They use microwave radiation to heat and cook food by causing water molecules in the food to vibrate, generating heat. UV radiation is not involved in the operation of microwave ovens.


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.

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.


Can ultraviolet light be absorbed in glass?

Yes, ultraviolet (UV) light can be absorbed in glass. Some types of glass, such as borosilicate glass, can absorb some UV radiation, especially shorter wavelengths. However, not all glass types are effective at blocking UV light, so it is important to use the appropriate glass for UV protection if needed.


Do ultraviolet spectroscopy and infrared spectroscopy involve electromagnetic radiation in their operation?

Yes, both ultraviolet spectroscopy and infrared spectroscopy involve the use of electromagnetic radiation. Ultraviolet spectroscopy uses UV light, which has shorter wavelengths and higher energies, while infrared spectroscopy uses infrared radiation, which has longer wavelengths and lower energies.


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.
