Now, however, the automobileâs long-promised electric future may be in sight, according to a new Morgan Stanley report that projects that as many as a billion battery electric vehicles will be on the road worldwide by 2050, reaching parity with vehicles powered by the internal combustion engine.
This is radiated heat energy. As soon as you turn on the light-bulb, even before you bring your hand close to it, you SEE it, because of the electromagnetic radiation in the VISIBLE range that leaves it. <br /> <br /> Another example of radiation can be a lava lamp. Radiation is the whole reason how a lava lamp works. Also there is ultraviolet, visible, infrared, gamma, microwave, X, alpha, beta, etc. A simple example of radiation is to turn on a light-bulb, and bring your hand close to it. The closer your hand gets, you begin to feel the heat from the light bulb. This is radiated heat energy. As soon as you turn on the light-bulb, even before you bring your hand close to it, you SEE it, because of the electromagnetic radiation in the VISIBLE range that leaves it.
Examples of high-energy radiation include x-rays and gamma rays. They, as well as some higher energy UV radiation, are called ionizing radiation, which means they have enough energy to remove an electron from (ionize) an atom or molecule. This can damage the DNA inside of cells, which can result in cancer. Radiofrequency (RF) radiation, which includes radio waves and microwaves, is at the low-energy end of the electromagnetic spectrum. It is a type of non-ionizing radiation. Non-ionizing radiation has enough energy to move atoms in a molecule around or cause them to vibrate, but not enough to ionize (remove charged particles such as electrons). RF radiation has lower energy than some other types of non-ionizing radiation, like visible light and infrared, but it has higher energy than extremely low-frequency (ELF) radiation.
