The 289 area code was created as an area code overlay for the Mississauga (Streetsville) area. Unlike the previous solutions, this process did not require the place to be geographically separated by different area codes.
Ionizing radiation is a term used for radiation whose quanta have energy to directly or indirectly ionize (one or more electrons are released from the atom of the given substance) molecules or atoms while passing through matter, hence the name ionizing radiation.
Radiation. 1  Radiation is the emission of energy as waves or particles or rays. 2  Radiation does not require a medium to transfer energy. 3  Radiant energy is either reflected or absorbed by matter. 4  Energy that is absorbed increases the kinetic energy of the object. 5  This increases the temperature of the object.
