Can radiation be direct contact?

Radiation can be direct contact when a radioactive source is in direct physical contact with a person or object, leading to exposure to radiation. This type of contact can result in localized radiation dose and potential harm to the exposed individual. Proper precautions should be taken to avoid direct contact with sources of radiation.


What method of heat transfer occurs when a material is heated as the result of direct contact with a heat source?

Conduction. In this process, heat energy is transferred through direct contact between the material being heated and the heat source.


How many ways does heat transfer occur?

conduction - requires direct physical contact between source and sinkconvection - requires a fluid between source and sinkradiation - electromagnetic radiation from source to sink


How is conduction and induction different?

Conduction is the transfer of heat through direct contact between two substances, where heat is transferred by the collision of particles. Induction is the process of generating an electrical current in a conductor by exposing it to a changing magnetic field, where the electrical current is induced without direct contact between the conductor and the source of the magnetic field.


What source of heat transfer is an electric blanket?

An electric blanket uses conduction as the main source of heat transfer. The electric elements inside the blanket heat up, which transfers heat through direct contact with the body when the blanket is placed on top.

Why can heat not conduct to earth?

Heat cannot conduct to Earth because heat transfer through conduction requires direct contact between materials with different temperatures. The Earth's surface is not in direct contact with the source of the heat transfer, which is typically the atmosphere or the sun. Heat can only conduct through Earth's surface when there is direct contact with a heat source or sink.

What is direct capture?

Direct Data Capture is data capture that came from a direct source


Is a statue a primary source?

The statue was created in the time Octavian Augustus was emperor. A primary source is direct evidence from people who lived in that time period. In this case the direct evidence is a statue and it is the history of a person. The statue is direct evidence so it is a primary source.
