UV radiation
is also used in sterilizing water from drinking fountains.
longer wavelength
The infrared waves produce heat and include radiation emitted by fire, the sun, and other heat- producing objects.
Radiation
is the transmission of energy in the form of waves or particles through space or through a material medium.
Gamma rays
can destroy living cells.
Medium
and high- frequency waves are used for broadcasting by local radio stations.
Terrestrial sources
include lighting, nuclear explosions, and radioactive decay.
Faradays Law
: The changing magnetic and electric fields are perpendicular to each other and to their direction of propagation.
Ultraviolet UV lamps
are used by banks to check the signature on a passbook.
white light
When passes through a prism, it is separated into its constituent colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.
form of energy
Is a(n) that acts by removing electrons from atoms and molecules of materials that include air, water, and living tissue.
magnetic attraction
He (Andre- Marie Ampere) produced a(n) and repulsion without the use of any magnets.
High Frequency
: waves can be reflected by the ione sphere.
EM waves
are transverse waves.
Short wavelength x rays
can penetrate even through metals.
Gamma rays
are used to treat cancer through the process called radiotherapy.
UV radiation
in sunlight produces vitamin D.
Radiation
is particularly associated with nuclear medicine and the use of nuclear energy, along with x- rays, is "ionizing ".
Gamma rays
are emitted by only the most energetic cosmic objects such as pulsars, neutrons stars, supernovas, and black holes.
Gamma rays
lie at the other end of the electromagnetic spectrum.
Faradays Law
The changing magnetic and electric fields are perpendicular to each other and to their direction of propagation
Low Frequency
waves are suitable for communication over long distances
High Frequency
waves can be reflected by the ione sphere
