Why is radioactivity hazardous?
Radioactivity is hazardous because it emits ionizing radiation that can damage living cells and tissues, leading to health problems such as cancer, genetic mutations, and radiation sickness. Exposure to high levels of radioactivity can have serious and long-lasting effects on humans and the environment.
What element is used to shield humans from radioactivity?
Usually lead (Pb) because it is a cheap heavy metal.
What would happen if humans were exposed to large quantities of radioactivity?
From nausea and vomiting, all the way to death.
What are the disadvantages of nuclear weapons testing?
Nuclear weapons testing can have negative impacts on the environment. They can make plants, soil and rain radioactive. This is extremely harmful to humans. Radioactivity can cause mutations in humans and animals.
Do cows charge at humans when they feel threatened or scared?
Yes, cows may charge at humans when they feel threatened or scared.
How does radioactivity affect the water cycle?
Radioactivity affect the water molecules. Radioactivity makes it harmful
The differences between natural and artificial radioactivity?
Natural radioactivity occurs when certain elements spontaneously decay, emitting radiation. This can include isotopes like uranium and thorium found in the Earth's crust. Artificial radioactivity, on the other hand, is created by humans through processes such as nuclear reactions or particle accelerators. This includes isotopes that are not naturally occurring but are created in laboratories for various applications.
Advantages of nuclear radioactivity?
What other sort of radioactivity is there?
What are the disadvantages of radio activity to humans'?
Radioactivity causes the destruction (mutation) of DNA in our cells, when these cells multiply they contain the mutated DNA which causes irregularities and cancer.
Radioactivity can be what?
Radioactivity can be induced in ordinary matter by artificial transmutation.
When did Marie curie build radioactivity?
no but she built the knowleage of radioactivity.
Do you messure radioactivity in literes?
You cannot measure radioactivity in litres
