What electromagnetic wave is found in space or nuclear explosions?
Gamma rays. These high energy electromagnetic waves are given of in nuclear reactions (including those in stars)
What kind of high energy radiation is released from a nuclear reaction?
We often see gamma rays released in nuclear reactions
Who have the highest energy gamma rays or neutrons produced from nuclear reactor?
Not sure
The electromagnetic waves with the highest frequencies are called?
The answer is gamma rays.
What are the electromagnetic waves with the shortest wavelengths and the highest frequency called?
Gamma Rays
What electromagnetic wave is found in space or nuclear explosions?
Gamma rays. These high energy electromagnetic waves are given of in nuclear reactions (including those in stars)
What kind of high energy radiation is released from a nuclear reaction?
We often see gamma rays released in nuclear reactions
Does skin block gamma rays from getting in the body?
No. Gamma rays are similar to X-rays in that they can penetrate deep into the human body. Gamma rays are electromagnetic radiation which is produced by the decay of some radioisotopes and from nuclear reactions. A form of radiation which will be blocked by the skin is alpha particles, which are helium nuclei.
Why is radium warm?
Radium is a warm as a consequence of energy release by nuclear reactions - radioactive decay with the emission of alpha, beta and gamma rays.
What are Waves usually given off during nuclear reactions?
Three types of radiation are given off, depending on the exact reaction. The radiations are called alpha, beta, and gamma radiation. Alpha radiation consists of helium nuclei; beta radiation consists of electrons or positrons; gamma radiation consists of high-energy photons (electromagnetic radiation).
Does a bomb produce gamma rays?
Conventional bombs (dynamite, TNT, etc.) are not powerful enough to produce gamma rays. Gamma rays are only produced in a nuclear bomb or a thermonuclear (hydrogen) bomb where nuclear reactions take place.
Are gamma rays emitted whenever a nuclear bomb goes off?
yes. the fallout also emits gamma rays.
What are nuclear bombs and its effects?
A bomb whose energy is obtained from nuclear fission and/or nuclear fusion reactions (not primarily from chemical reactions).Radiation: IR/light/UV/X-rays/Gamma rays/Neutrons/Alpha/BetaBlast: Shock wave/Cratering/Flying debris/Falling debrisFireFire storm (merging of many fires into one creating a strong updraft and its own weather system)Radiological contamination: Alpha/Beta/Gamma sourcesFallout: Alpha/Beta/Gamma sources
The most penetrating of the types of nuclear radiation?
Gamma rays. They need layers of concrete and lead. They are also still not completely blocked.
What kind of electromagnetic radiation arises only from nuclear excitations?
Gamma Rays
Who have the highest energy gamma rays or neutrons produced from nuclear reactor?
Not sure
How would you compare and contrast X ray bursts and gamma ray bursts?
If we consider the bursts of high energy electromagnetic radiation from stellar or galactic sources, we encounter bursts of X-rays and gamma rays. The two are similar in that both are examples of high energy electromagnetic energy, and both can be generated by certain stars or galaxies. Additionally, both are the result of nuclear reactions in the star or at sites within the galaxy. But with gamma rays, the sources may be fewer than with X-rays, and the gamma rays are higher in energy than the X-rays.
