    Ultraviolet rays are invisible rays that are part of the energy coming from the sun and have wavelengths between 400 nm to 100 nm. Ultraviolet rays are produced by atoms when electrons change energy levels and emit photons upon returning to their ground state. The document further describes the three types of UV rays - UV A, UV B, and UV C - and their wavelength ranges, effects on humans and applications.

    Ultra Violet Rays

    Class XI-8
    Name:
    Izzadin Hendradi
    Kevin Akbar
    Putri Shelmikaffah
    Zulfia Suci
    Ultraviolet rays is
    invisible rays that are
    part of energy coming
    from the sun

    Ultraviolet wave rays Ultraviolet rays has


    has frequency in wavelength in range :
    range 1016 400 nm – 100 nm
    Mechanism of Ultra Violet
    Ultraviolet produced by the atoms due to change
    the level of energy of electrons in atoms. When an
    atom is energized in the form of heat, the electrons
    will be excited to a higher level. However, because
    it unstable, the electron will return to its ground
    state, called de-excitation. When experiencing de-
    excitation process, electrons also emit energy in
    the form of photons contained UV rays. And the
    sun is the main source of an ultra violet rays.
    General type of UV light
    UV radiation is made up of three types of rays
    UV A

     Wavelength Range : 400 nm – 315 nm


     Alternative Names : Long wave, black light not absorbed by the ozone layer
     Benefits Effect : Helps in the production of Vitanmin D in the human’s body.
    Provitamin D will be produced in hypodermis in the bottom of dermical layer in
    skin.
     Harmful Effect : May darkened skin coclor because UV A stimulates the
    melanosit of the skin yo produce more brown pigments (melanin)
     Application: 1. Checking of counterfeit banknotes
    2. Hardening of inks and coating
    3. Pest control. Insects are attracted to the UV light and killedv by the electric
    shock in b ug zappers
    UV B

     Wavelength Range : 315 nm – 280 nm


     Alternative Names : Medium wave, mostly absorbed by the ozone layer but not
    until the earth’s surface
     Benefits Effect : Helps in the treatment of psoriasi ( disease causing red and
    scaly skins).
     Harmful Effect : May cause sunburn on the skin
     Application : Medical applications such as treatment of psoriasi ( a kind of
    disease causing red and scaly skins)
    UV C

     Wavelength Range : 280 nm – 100 nm


     Alternative Names : Short wave, germicidal, completely absorbed by the
    ozone layer and atmosphere
     Benefits Effect : Desinfection of drinking water and sterilization of apparatus
    by damaging the DNA of bacteria (germs)
     Harmful Effect : May cause skin cancer and skin damage
     Application : Desinfection of drinking water and sterilization of apparatus.
    Energy UV radiation destroys the DNA of bacteria and micro-organism.
