Cosmic rays

When going through EM spectrum slides (after the little pop quiz based on the EM spectrum song) with 3H today, we read that 2 of the sources of gamma rays are radioactive substances and cosmic rays and some of you have questions about cosmic rays.

I have found a link for you to read if you are interested in finding out more about cosmic rays: Read more about cosmic rays here.

For your viewing/singing pleasure

Lyrics:
The electromagnetic spectrum
Is just a name
Of a range of radiation
Let me tell you what they are

Radio waves
Microwaves
Infra-red radiation
Visible light
Ultra-violet
X-rays
Gamma rays

From the TV station to your living room
That is the work of radio waves
Heating food in just seconds
Microwaves do that

Heat treatment for illness
Take pictures in the dark
They are even in your remote control
Infra-red radiation

(repeat)

Red Orange Yellow Green Blue
Indigo Violet
That is the only part of the spectrum
That can be seen by us

The suntan on your skin
Kill bacteria and viruses
Use to detect forgery
That is ultra-violet

(repeat)

See your broken bones and the hidden bombs
That is the work of x-rays
Kill cancer cells and sterilize
Dangerous gamma rays do that

Now we have completed
The electromagnetic spectrum
If you still do not understand
Then play this song again!

(repeat)

Let's try this out with the Karaoke Version~!
