Radiation can enter the body by breathing eating drinking absorption through the skin how?

Radiation can enter the body through breathing contaminated air, consuming contaminated food or water, and direct absorption through the skin if in contact with radioactive materials. Once inside the body, these radioactive particles can cause damage to tissues and cells, leading to potential health risks. It is important to follow safety measures to avoid exposure to radiation.


Who emits more radiation a white body or a black body?

A black body emits more radiation than a white body. A black body absorbs all radiation that falls on it and re-emits it as thermal radiation, making it an ideal emitter. On the other hand, a white body reflects most radiation and thus emits less overall.


Loss of infrared energy from the body is called what?

Loss of infrared energy from the body is called thermal radiation.


What is always false about thermal black body radiation?

One common misconception about thermal black body radiation is that it depends on the material of the object emitting the radiation. However, in reality, thermal black body radiation only depends on the temperature of the object, not its material composition.


Does radiation leave your body after having xrays?

Yes, most of the radiation used during X-rays is quickly absorbed by the body's tissues or shielded by lead aprons. Any remaining radiation is typically very low and decreases rapidly as the body eliminates it. Your body does not retain radiation from routine X-rays after the procedure is completed.

Can a chemical enter the body by infrared?

No. Infra-red is a type of radiation, basically heat. It won't put anything into your body.

Can you get radiation poisoning from dropping a cellphone on your skin?

Absolutely not ! You're perfectly safe! The radio waves from your phone (radiation) will enter your body while you have your phone near you, the fact that you dropped it on your arm makes no difference to this.

Explain why beta and gamma particles can easily enter your body?

Beta and gamma particles can easily enter the body due to their high penetration capabilities. Beta particles are energetic electrons that can penetrate the skin, while gamma rays are high-energy electromagnetic radiation that can pass through the body. Both types of radiation can interact with tissues and organs, potentially causing damage.


Can you feel the gamma rays enter your body?

No, of cause not. Nor can you feel X-Ray, radio, light or any electromagnetic radiation. You also can not feel any other types of radiation (alpha, betta). Billions of billions of cosmic particles go right though your body right now, as you reading this! Does it hurt?


Can a body be immune to radiation?

No it can not.

Why are refrigerator compressors painted black?

It's because of radiation that as you know black body is an ideal radiation body for good radiation and so good heat transfer.
