how secondary radiation is produced?
Secondary radiation refers to the radiation that is produced when primary radiation interacts with matter, leading to the emission of additional radiation. This secondary radiation can have different properties and energies compared to the original primary radiation.
When matter is irradiated by X-rays, it can produce secondary radiation such as Compton scattering, photoelectric effect, or pair production. These processes involve interaction between the X-rays and the atoms in the material, leading to the emission of secondary radiation.
The percentage of radiation produced compared to the amount of heat produced depends on the source of heat. For example, in a typical fire, about 70-90% of the heat produced is in the form of radiation. In contrast, for electric heating sources, the percentage of radiation produced is lower as most of the heat is convective.
A photographic image produced by the action of xrays or nuclear radiation is called a radiograph.
Microwaves are produced by electronic devices called magnetrons, which convert electrical energy into microwave radiation. This radiation heats and cooks food by exciting the water molecules within it.
Secondary radiation refers to the radiation that is produced when primary radiation interacts with matter, leading to the emission of additional radiation. This secondary radiation can have different properties and energies compared to the original primary radiation.
The time it takes to remove secondary radiation after an X-ray is typically immediate, as secondary radiation, which is scattered radiation produced when the primary X-ray beam interacts with matter, diminishes rapidly. The exposure to secondary radiation usually decreases significantly within seconds after the X-ray exposure is stopped. However, the actual removal of residual radiation in the environment can vary based on factors such as room ventilation and shielding. Overall, the concern for secondary radiation is minimal once the procedure is complete.

Mostly heat - with a secondary release of electromagnetic radiation (that's the light).

Radiation is produced: either by gamma, alpha or beta.
Heat is both radiation and the vibration of atoms/molecules.
