Radiation Revelations

Grade:

Teacher:

Mrs. Melissa Bravenec

"This project compared the radiation emitted from different phones in different modes. This project was chosen because of the many hours a day people spend on a phone could possibly be dangerous. Iphones emitted less radiation than Samsungs. The Galaxy S7 emitted the most radiation, and the iphone 7+ emitted the least. The phones playing a video emitted the highest amount of radiation, while the phones with the black screen displayed emitted the least. This project is important because people need to be aware of how time spent on a phone may affect their health."
