EM radiation often emitted by heat lamps heaters and fires?
That would be the portion of the spectrum called "heat" (far infrared).
Is all electromagnetic radiation in the optical portion of the electromagnetic spectrum is visable?
Yes
What is responsible for absorbing the largest portion of incoming solar radiation?
Oxygen and ozone
Can radiation-feeding bacteria eliminate radiation?
Not yet. There are no known species that can eat fast enough to keep up with it, so a substrantial portion of the radiation always gets through.
Do umbrellas protect you from UV radiation?
Yes, they do. However they do reflect only a certain portion of UV.

What kind of radiation is used by mobile phones?
Electromagnetic radiation, in the microwave portion of the radio spectrum.
In which region of the electromagnetic spectrum is most of the outgoing radiation from earth?
Aside from all the radio signals generated by Man, the Earth radiates primarily in the Infrared portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. This consists of reflected and re-radiated solar heat and 'black body' radiation from the Earth itself. (The reflected radiation includes some components of shorter wavelength such as visible light, but the re-radiated component is essentially all infrared.)
What portion of the electromagnetic spectrum has the shortest wavelength?
Gamma radiation
What occurs between visible light and a small portion of electromagnetic energy?
UV radiation and infrared radiation bb
What gas absorbes a large portion of ultravionlet radiation in the stratosphere?
Ozone gas absorbs it. It absorbs the ultraviolet radiation of the sun.
Is all electromagnetic radiation in the optical portion of the electromagnetic spectrum is visable?
Yes
What is responsible for absorbing the largest portion of incoming solar radiation?
Oxygen and ozone
Why can humans not see radiation?
because they are present at the invisible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum
Can radiation-feeding bacteria eliminate radiation?
Not yet. There are no known species that can eat fast enough to keep up with it, so a substrantial portion of the radiation always gets through.
Radiation absorbed per 100 units by water vapor and clouds?
The amount of radiation absorbed per 100 units by water vapor and clouds can vary depending on factors like the amount of water vapor present, cloud density, and the type of radiation (e.g. solar or terrestrial). On average, water vapor absorbs a significant portion of solar radiation and emits it back into the atmosphere. Clouds can further enhance this absorption and scattering of radiation, leading to a net increase in energy absorption compared to clear skies.
What is warmth irradiation?
Infrared Radiation - Warmth From The Cold of Space. What is Infrared Radiation? The light we see with our eyes is really a very small portion of what is cold.
