What is more dangerous high frequency radiation or low frequency radiation?
heya. Okay so I had the same question for a sheet i had to do in my physics lesson.The harm done to humans by EM radiation depends on the intensity and wavelength of the radiation.high frequency radiation has more potential to damage human DNA than longer wavelengths (Low frequency). That's why UV radiation tends to promote skin cancer while visible light has no known tendency to do so. Short-wavelength radiation can also carry more energy than long-wavelength radiation of the same intensity.Long-wavelength radiation is more known for its tendency to cause human tissue to heat up, which can cause death more quickly than short-wavelength radiation. Microwave energy is one example of this; fairly high-intensity microwaves are used to heat food in a microwave oven.So really high frequency is more dangerous, such as gamma rays :)source: Is_electromagnetic_radiation_harmful_to_humans
Is concentrated basic solution potentially most dangerous to human skin?
queef
Why skin depth is independent of frequency?
Skin depth is not independent of frequency. It is inverse proportional to the frequency.
The decrease in effective conductor cross section at high frequencies?
Is called skin effect. The higher the frequency, the worse the issue.
Why the medium conductivity is low at high frequency?
skin effect. current flow concentrates near surfaces and avoids the bulk.
Are tanning lamps dangerous to the human body?
Tanning lamps are not harmful to human body. They are mainly used in tanning booths for getting skin tanning. They produce UV rays gives tanning to skin. They are not dangerous to human body as long as exposure is controlled and done under proper guidance. One can not forget over exposure to sun is also dangerous. It is necessary to protect eyes while using tanning lamps.
What are the dangers of gamma?
it is very dangerous gamma is can get into your skin and kill you if you get a low dose of it but if it is a high dose they you are ok.
Compared to visible light ultraviolet radiation is more harmful to human skin and eyes because ultraviolet radiation has a?
higher frequency... resonance with DNA
Are any animal dangerous for human?
There are some species of frogs, mostly living in tropical areas, that can poison you just by you touching their skin.
Skin effect related to ac and DC?
IT IS RELATED TO AC ONLY BKZ SKIN EFFECT DEPENDS FREQUENCY ONLY WHERE IS IN DC NO FREQUENCY
What is the Effects of high humidity on human body?
High humidity makes it harder for the human body to cool down because sweat does not evaporate from the skin as easily. Also, high humidity can cause allergies to worsen.
What is the difference between a human skin and a polar bear?
Human skin is well skin, and polar bears aren't human skin.
