Yes. Each unstable element decays differently. Some emit gamma, some emit alpha, some emit beta, and some emit different combinations of those in different sequences as one unstable element gives rise to another unstable element.

What is ohmic decay?

Ohmic decay is the wasting away of dipolar magnetic fields. This decaying takes place over a very long period of time.


When does decay occur?

Radioactive decay happens in an unstable isotope of a given element, as the isotope decays radiation is given off. As for when exactly, the decay of a nucleus is spontaneous and random so averages are used, these averages are different for different isotopes, but are measured as the "half life" (the time it takes for half the nucleus to decay).

What type of pronoun is radiation?

The word radiation is a noun not a pronoun. The noun radiation is a singular, common, concrete noun, a word for a thing. A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun. The pronoun that will take the place of the noun radiation is it. Example sentence:Radiation was detected at that plant. It will contaminate the site for many years.
