In the Geiger-Muller tube, particles ionize gas atoms. The tube contains a gas at low pressure. At one end of the tube is a very thin "window" through which charged particles or gamma rays pass. Inside the tube is a copper cylinder with a negative charge. A rigid wire with a positive charge runs down the center of this cylinder...

Electromagnetic Waves When radio waves are transmitted, one of the characteristics of the wave can be varied: the amplitude or frequency of the wave. This variation is called modulation...	4 / 908
Investigating Osmosis A second piece will be weighed and recorded, then we will place a pin through the middle, then it will be put into the same test tube. A third piece will be weighed and recorded, and then we will place two pins through the middle, then it will be placed into the same test tube...	3 / 595
Mini-research Neutrons were determined to have a mass of 1.0087 amu. They are unstable outside of an atom and slowly degenerate to form protons and electrons.	2 / 291
nuclear radiation Photons interact strongly with charged particles, so photons of sufficiently high energy are ionizing. The energy at which this begins to happen is in the ultraviolet region; sunburn is one of the effects of this ionization...	3 / 835
