Question

What effects does ionizing radiation have on the atmosphere? Select the two correct answers.

Answer 1

it helps atoms to escape earth’s gravity in the exosphere

it ionizes atoms + molecules in the thermosphere

Explanation:

Ionizing radiation generally causes atoms to escape the earth's gravity and ionize atoms in the thermosphere.

• Ionizing radiations are highly energetic radiations from the sun.
• They usually have high frequency and very low wavelength.
• Gamma rays and ultraviolet radiations are in this category.
• When they interact with atmosphere, the upper layers cuts them off and prevents them from reaching the surface.
• They ionize atoms and molecules and turns them into plasma.
• These particles are energetic and capable of escaping the earth's atmosphere
