Radiation could be characterized as vitality that is emitted as electromagnetic waves or as moving sub-nuclear particles. Sorts OF RADIATION Gamma radiation Beta radiation Alpha radiation X-radiation Aspects OF RADIATION 1.Gamma Radiation Gamma radiation is exceptionally penetrative electromagnetic radiation.it promptly and effectively enters numerous materials including human tissue. Gamma radiation is found in unmistakable light,radio waves and ultraviolet light. Very thick materials are obliged to give assurance from gamma radiation. Examples:Iodine-131,Cobalt-60,Radium-226 2.Alpha Radiation Alpha radiation is made up of substantial particles which are short range,therefore unable to enter most materials including human skin.it ventures short distances.however,it is conceivably unsafe when swallowed or breathed in. Examples: Radium,Radon,Uranium,Thorium 3.Beta Radiation Beta radiation is made up of light particles that are short range.t...
