electromagnetic radiation

Question 3

during ionization, what usual subatomic particle moves when one is added or removed

Answer 3

electron

Question 4

in practice, the most common radiation that we use is

Answer 4

ionizing radiation

Question 5

particulate radiation travels differently because of varying masses and chargers. also, all can be used for practice of radiologic technology. tf

Answer 5

false

Question 6

when a cell is exposed to radiation, 4 occurrences can happen. when the radiation is high enough, it would pass through the cell with little chance of absorption because the higher the energy of radiation, the stronger the penetrability. tf

Answer 6

true
