Conduction‚ Convection‚ and Radiation Heat transfer is the way heat moves through matter to change the temperature of other objects. There are three types of heat transfers‚ Conduction‚ Convection‚ and Radiation. The first kind of heat transfer‚ conduction‚ is heat transferring through direct contact of materials. This would be the same thing as a pan on the stove. The heat from the stove touches the pan directly‚ therefore making the pan hot. The next type of heat transfer is convection

Blackbody radiation is the electro-magnetic radiation emerging from a small hole in a perfectly black box containing electromagnetic radiation at a high temperature. Scientists were interested in setting standards for the electric and thus measured the distribution of the total electromagnetic energy in a black box among the different wavelengths of the light. But not until Max Planck‚ at the turn of the century‚ was a single mathematical formula for the observed distribution of the energy among

In the time of the agricultural age‚ two civilizations arose out of the plenteous food and raging waters. These two early civilizations were Mesopotamia and Egypt. Although many similarities can be drawn between the two‚ they each proved to be very different from each other in social‚ political‚ and religious systems as well as their stability and defeat. Although the Egyptian and Mesopotamian civilizations paved the way modern civilizations‚ they have more differences that are illustrated in

The year 2010 was a watershed moment in the field of radiation oncology‚ due to articles written by Walt Bogdanich in the New York Times. These articles critiqued leadership‚ radiation dose‚ and patient safety‚ and accused the community of using unsafe practices (Washington & Leaver‚ 2016). While there had been previous accidents which injured and killed patients during the 1980s‚ those few accidents were attributed to equipment faults‚ as computer equipment was merged with treatment delivery equipment

Brachytherapy (also known as internal radiation therapy) is the use of radioactive ‘seeds’ to help destroy cancerous cells. It is commonly used as a treatment for cervical‚ prostate‚ breast and skin cancer. How long the treatment will take will depend on where the tumor is and how large it is. Brachytherapy works from the inside of the body by placing the radioactive ‘seeds’ into the body next to the tumor. About 4/10 people with cancer have some type of radiation therapy as their treatment. History
