RADIATION


Radiation is two types:


1: electromagnetic radiation(EMR)
2: nuclear radiation

  • radiation is nothing but the emission of energy by the decay of atom(nuclear radiation) or the combination of electricity and magnetic energy(EMR).
  • EMR at low frequency(lower end spectrum) is used in radios and cellphones, microwaves, infrared rays, high-frequency EMR(ultraviolet rays, gamma rays,x rays, etc,.


  • electromagnetic radiation invented by the JAMES CLERK MAXWELL.
  • nuclear radiation is invented by MARIE CURIE(the first Nobel prized women).
  • EMR is pure energy, this can be used in our daily artificial life.
  • example of nuclear radiation generation elements;
  • RADON element number in the periodic table is 86, radon gas is natural gas. mass number is 222.
  • URANIUM element number in the periodic table is 92, it is a natural element.

NOTE:


banana contains potassium isotope.if we eat more than 174 in a day we will die. due to the cause of radiation. it is a natural example.

everywhere in the natural radiation is exist.but it is not dangerous to us.

and also remember that isotopes are the radiation emitters.isotope is nothing but each of two or more forms of an element contains the same number of protons
but different numbers of neutrons.

due to the continuous exposure of ionizing radiation causes acute exposure. which means human to cause cellular disfunction, cancer, death.

but human exposures are rare in daily life.

NOTE 2:


sievert scientist explains the radiation exposure calculation by the Sievert calculating method.

sievert number 1 causes the human nausea effect.
sievert number 6 causes human death.


NUCLEAR RADIATION:

about particles:


  1. alpha is the positively charged particle, a massive particle. invented by the scientist RUTHERFORD.
  2. beta is the negatively charged particle, less massive particle. invented by the RUTHERFORD.
  3. gamma is the light particle, it has no charge, massive less. (photon)invented by the PAUL.


NOTE 3:

  • the paper does not allow the alpha particle;
  • aluminum does not allow the beta particle;
  • lead does not allow the gamma particles. (more dangerous to us)
  • Nuclear fission is nuclear radiation. nothing but the splitting of atoms into several parts.

URANIUM FISSION:


Unstable uranium 235 get strike by the neutron causes to the splitting of its elements into krypton, barium,3 neutrons.
these 3 neutrons again strike the uranium 235 and this is like a chain reaction. a huge amount of energy is generated by this
chain reaction.this is similar in the atomic bomb.

92 uranium 235: 235 is the atomic weight(total no.of nucleus);92 is the atomic number(total no.of protons and electrons).

[P+E=N]
[1.00728(a.m.u)+0.0005486(a.m.u)=1.0078286(a.m.u)]


ALPHA RADIATION:


U(238/92)→He(4/2)+Th(234/90) another alpha radiation formula with the thorium.

Th(230/90)→He(4/2)+Ra(226/88).


BETA RADIATION:

Thorium(234) is a nucleus that undergoes beta decay.

Th(90/230)→He(24)+Ra(88/226)

GAMMA RADIATION(photons):


URANIUM (238/92)→THORIUM(234/90)+HELIUM(4/2)+200 MEV (GAMMA)


URANIUM 238 DECAY CHAIN:

THERMODYNAMIC LAWS

 HELLO ALL, TODAY I WANT TO EXPLAIN ABOUT THE THERMODYNAMIC LAWS thermodynamic laws are : 1. first law: it states that energy neither be created nor be destroyed, it always changes one form to another form. 2. second law: it states that energy can change the position of any object but the state of energy is potentially reduced comparing to the initial state. 3. third law: it states that the thermal energy per unit temperature of a system approaches a constant value as the temperature absolute zero. zeroth law: if two systems are in thermal equilibrium with the third system then these three are also in thermal equilibrium.

THE INVENTIONS OF SCIENTISTS AND THE PHYSICAL QUANTITES

 Ok guys, these are the inventions and scientific names which changes the world like this:  tuning Fork invented by the conig. The sound was recorded and reproduced for the first time by Edison next. The first law of thermodynamics was introduced by the Joul. Weber scientists introduced the molecular theory of magnetism. And this theory of magnetism improved by the eving. Scientists coulomb invented the law of magnetic forces. Bennett invented the gold-leaf electroscope. Michael Faraday introduced electrolysis. The first theory of Hanson oerested is invented by a wire carrying current behaves like a magnet. E Goldstein proposed the positive rays. JJ Thomson proposed the cathode rays. Proton was discovered by  Rutherford. Neutron was discovered by James Chadwick. Discovery of electrons by millicon. X-rays  invented by rontgen. Artificial radioactivity was discovered by Joliot and iren curie. Artificial transmutation was introduced by Rutherford. Nuclear fission ...
