Radiation can come from natural sources such as the sun and radioactive elements in the earth, as well as man-made sources like medical imaging devices, nuclear power plants, and certain industrial processes. Common types are electromagnetic radiation (like light and radio waves) and particulate radiation (like alpha, beta, and gamma particles).
Hot things give off infrared radiation, which is a form of electromagnetic radiation that lies within the infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum. This type of radiation is invisible to the human eye but can be felt as heat on the skin.
Things with radiation include nuclear power plants, X-ray machines, radioactive waste, and certain types of medical treatments like radiation therapy for cancer. Radiation can be harmful to living organisms if not properly controlled and managed.
Radiation can ionize atoms and molecules, causing damage to cells and DNA, leading to potential health effects such as cancer. It can also be used in medical imaging and radiation therapy to diagnose and treat diseases. Additionally, radiation can penetrate materials for inspection and sterilization purposes.
When things touch, heat can be transferred through conduction, where it moves from a hotter object to a cooler one. If the objects reach high temperatures, they can emit infrared radiation, transferring heat through radiation. So, yes, heat can be transferred to radiation when objects touch under certain conditions.
Radiation can pass through various substances depending on the type and energy of the radiation. For example, alpha radiation is blocked by a sheet of paper or clothing, while beta radiation can penetrate skin but is stopped by thicker materials like aluminum. Gamma radiation is highly penetrating and can pass through most substances, but is absorbed by dense materials like lead or concrete.
Electromagnetic radiation is emitted from many different things. Some of the things that emit electromagnetic radiation are microwaves, x-rays and radios.
Chemo radiation kill cancer cells.
you have to use a radiation machine

false because sunlight has radiation and all living things like humans has radiation
microwave

In all technicality, radiation.
Sun Radiation Convection
Things that cause mutations such as heat, radiation, etc..
Among other things, the Sun produces light, heat, and cosmic radiation.
Yes, microwaves cook with radiation. Electromagnetic radiation in the microwave band. It's non-ionizing, but it works well to heat things up.
