Alpha radiation cannot get pass through our body as it cannot penetrate through things. Beta can penetrate through things better than alpha. So if alpha is inside our body then it cannot get outside our body and therefore it becomes dangerous.

A Laser (Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation) is "coherent" light. That means that all of the light is traveling in the same direction. Unlike a lightbulb, flashlight, or other "normal" light source where the light is going in all directions out from the center of the source, a Laser's light is all going in a straight line away from the source. This is why you cannot see a laser until it hits something (dust particles in the air, for example), and also why looking directly into a Laser (yes, even one of the cheap pointer types) can cause permanent damage to your eye.
Spectroscope is a useful qualitative analysis tool because is it can analyze wavelengths what humans can't see especially infrared and ultraviolet radiation. Also since light has a different color of wavelengths; Scientist can find useful information such as chemical elements present at the source of the light.

Gamma radiation is the most dangerous type of nuclear radiation if the source is outside the body, as it can penetrate through the body causing damage to cells and DNA. It has the highest energy and can travel the farthest distances.
It depends on the strength of the active source. Alpha radiation is dangerous if it gets inside your body, gamma will penetrate your clothing and body if energetic enough, so it's difficult to give an answer that covers all cases. Health physicists have to consider each type of radiation on its merits.
Radiation is dangerous ... Too much kills but even small amounts may eventually cause cancer. Radiation levels decrease as does gravity with the square of the distance from the source. At twice the distance, the rad level becomes 1/4 th as much.
Alpha radiation can be harmful if ingested or inhaled, as it can damage cells and DNA, leading to an increased risk of cancer. However, alpha particles can be stopped by a sheet of paper or human skin, so they are not as dangerous as other types of radiation unless the source is inside the body.
To detect dangerous radiation leaking into the environment from a radioactive source, specialized instruments like Geiger counters and scintillation detectors are used to measure ionizing radiation levels. These devices can identify and quantify different types of radiation, including alpha, beta, and gamma radiation. Additionally, environmental monitoring can involve sampling air, water, and soil to analyze for radioactive isotopes. Exceeding established safety thresholds in these measurements can indicate a leak or contamination.
Infrared radiation only affects the surface of the skin... x-rays penetrate much further.

No, intracavitary radiation does not make people radioactive. The radioactive source used for treatment is placed inside the body temporarily, and once the treatment is completed, the source is removed. The patient does not become radioactive from this procedure.
Cosmic radiation External terrestrial and internal radiation
In internal radiation therapy a source of radioactivity is surgically placed inside the body near the cancer
No, doubling the source of radioactivity will not halve the radiation intensity. Radiation intensity is directly proportional to the amount of radioactive material present. So doubling the source will double the radiation intensity.
The relationship between the intensity of radiation and the distance from the source, as described by the inverse square law, states that the intensity of radiation decreases as the distance from the source increases. This means that the further away you are from the source of radiation, the lower the intensity of radiation you will be exposed to.
