Radio  Radio/Television signals

Waves Radio and television signals are radio waves
that are produced by making electrons
vibrate. It has a long wavelength capable to
transmit sound and picture information over
long distances.
 Global Positioning System (GPS) is a
space-based navigation system that
provides geographical position and time
information anywhere on or near the earth.
It communicates with stations on the
ground using radio waves.
 Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
It is a medical imaging technique that uses
powerful magnets, computer and radio
waves to make detailed pictures inside your
body. 

Microwave  Satellite communication

s Microwaves are used in satellite
communications because it can penetrate
the earth’s atmosphere. Microwave’s signals
are transmitted by an antenna to a satellite
which amplifies and retransmits the signal
to an antenna in other parts of the world.
This is how we communicate even from afar.
 Terrestrial communication
A cell phone is a radio transmitter and
receiver that uses microwaves. Cellular
phones depend on overlapping network of
cells. Each cell has its tower that receives
and sends microwave signals.
 Cooking
The microwaves in a microwave oven
penetrate and agitate the water molecules
within the food. Thus, they create molecular

new skills #2 From the practical applications of EM waves discussed above, we can conclude that
these waves are significant to us. But, even essential forms of radiations can be
harmful in excessive amount.
The effect of EM radiation on organisms and environment depends on how much
energy it carries. Radiation can be non-ionizing and ionizing. Non-ionizing radiation
does not have enough energy to remove electrons from atoms and molecules. Radio
waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light and ultraviolet are non- ionizing radiation. We
are exposed to low levels of non-ionizing radiation every day. When the exposure is
intense and direct, it may result in damage to tissue due to heat. Right amount of
non-ionizing radiation like UV rays maintain the proper mechanism of ecosystem.
High-energy EM waves like x-rays and gamma rays are considered as ionizing
radiation. Like the non-ionizing radiation, we are also exposed to low levels of ionizing
radiation that comes from the atmosphere. This means that the usual amount of
ionizing radiation from natural sources absorbed by our bodies is small. Our main
exposure to ionizing radiation comes from manmade sources through the use of
diagnostic medical exams. Excessive exposure to these radiations can alter molecules
within the cells and may cause eventual harm such as skin or tissue damage, cancer
and death.
When handled improperly, radioactive pollution may occur, where the air, soil and
water will be contaminated. This pollution may eventually makes its way up to the food
chain where all forms of life may be affected.
