Question
Chapter 11.7, Problem 1QQ
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The film badges that are worn by technicians who are all working with radiation can detect what has to be chosen from the given options.
Concept Introduction:
Radiations emitted from a radionuclide are very harmful at higher levels. Radiations cannot be heard, tasted, seen, or even felt. Radiation can be detected by making use of the fact that the radiation ionizes molecules and atoms.
