    the topic of how diagnostic radiology procedures do affect the risk of cancer later in life. The authors of this article compared lifetime data and statistics from the survivors of the Japanese atomic bombs to children who had been exposed to radiation from CT scans. This is how they began their studies in 2008. The researchers…

    1. Color Color is a piece of the electromagnetic range and has dependably existed, however Sir Isaac Newton gave the first clarification of shading in 1666. Newton passed slender light emission daylight through a crystal situated in a dim room. Obviously all the noticeable range (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet) was shown on the white screen. Individuals as of now realized that light went through a crystal would demonstrate a rainbow or noticeable range; however Newton 's…

    same speed (~3x108 m/s), the only factor to change is the wavelength (λ) or its inverse, the frequency (μ). To acquire this value, the ideas of electromagnetic and cosmic radiation have to be accounted for. Because all objects in our universe and anything between us and the receiving planet emit some sort of electromagnetic radiation, extensive research has been put into determining the range that incurred the least amount of noise. As a society, we base our daily life on radio communication —…

    material's low-energy gamma rays to be used in some cancer treatments while the alpha radiation emitted minimally effects the contaminated host (Wanless, A., 2011). Americium can be useful to humans, despite its radioactive state as it is used in testing devices such as fluid gauges, thickness measurements, and is also used in the production of domestic smoke detectors. Exposure to ingestion results in internal radiation and the material can then be transported through the circulatory system of…

    (EMS) 1rst Hypothesis: we believe that High Frequency has more energy than low frequency. Explanation: For this hypothesis, we found that our calculations were wrong and we tested this by using the electromagnetic spectrum: radio wave, microwave, radiation, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays and gamma rays. We went outside and made a simulation by walking and each group was one of the spectrums and we looked at how many more laps one group did than the other and we found that radio…
