Nuclear Radiation

Intro to Radiation print). The sun brings lots of radiation to the earth. Just living you are exposed to background radiation. Radiation is just the emission of energy waves –its more harmful if it has MORE energy. Electromagnetic Spectrum shows the different types of energy waves Elements have specific patterns of energy they release – it is unique to the element (like a finger- print).

Ted Talk on Nuclear Debate https://www.ted.com/talks/debate_does_the_world_need_nuclear_energy?language=en

Expectations on Persuassive Paper on Nuclear Power Nuclear power is an alternative energy source that is surrounded by a lot of debate. You are to weigh the pros and cons and choose whether or not you support the use of Nuclear power after reading the article and possibly doing more independent research. After you make a decision, you will write a one page paper that will be used to persuade a peer to agree with your position.

Nuclear Debate Do you agree or disagree with the use of Nuclear Power? Explain why. What are the benefits/disadvantages of using Nuclear Power. What alternatives can we use? Why should others care about the use of Nuclear Power?

Radiation Notes Definition: the process in which energetic particles or energetic waves travel through matter. Geiger Counter: a device used to measure radiation

C. Types of Radiation Alpha weakest of the particles can be blocked by tin foil is represented by: example equation:

Beta mid-range particles can be blocked by brick represented by: example equation:

Gamma strongest of the particles can be blocked by thick lead equation does NOT change
