A device generically called a Radiac, however there are dozens of different kinds of Radiacs which operate by different principles and measure different things. Some are:
- geiger-mueller counter
- rate meter
- ionization chamber meter
- scintillation counter
- electrometer dosimeter
- ionization chamber dosimeter
- photographic film dosimeter
What else can I help you with?
Which physicistinvented the instrument that detects radioactivity?
The physicist who invented the Geiger counter, the instrument that detects radioactivity, was Hans Geiger.
Name the instrument used to detect radioactivity?
Geiger Counter *********Contributed by Czar Acumen**********************
What is an instrument that detects radioactivity by means of condensation of gases?
A cloud chamber is an instrument that detects radioactivity by condensing gases to create visible vapor trails from ionizing radiation particles. These trails make the presence of radioactivity visible and can help identify the type and energy of the particles.
Can a geiger counter detect radioactivity?
Yes, a Geiger counter can detect radioactivity. It measures ionizing radiation such as alpha, beta, and gamma rays by detecting the electric charge produced from ionization of the gas inside the device when radiation passes through it.
What can you do with an electroscope?
An electroscope is used to detect the presence of electric charge by using the principle of electrostatic induction. It can determine if an object is charged or not, as well as the type of charge (positive or negative). It is often used in physics demonstrations and experiments to illustrate the behavior of electric charges.
What instrument for detecting radioactivity is named after a 20th century German physicist?
Geiger Counter. Or Gieger Counter...not certain of spelling.
Which physicistinvented the instrument that detects radioactivity?
The physicist who invented the Geiger counter, the instrument that detects radioactivity, was Hans Geiger.
A palindrome for an instrument for detecting airplanes?
Radar.
What are the medical instrument that uses radioactivity?
It is Radiograph and it is used by a Radiologist.

What instrument is commonly used for detecting atomic particles?
A Geiger Counter
What is an instrument that detects radioactivity by means of condensation of gases?
A cloud chamber is an instrument that detects radioactivity by condensing gases to create visible vapor trails from ionizing radiation particles. These trails make the presence of radioactivity visible and can help identify the type and energy of the particles.
What does barometers do?
It's a useful instrument for detecting weather. It measures air pressure.
Can you give me a sentence for the word electroscope?
An electroscope is an instrument for detecting the presence of static electricity.
What hand held device can detect radioactivity in elements such as uranium?
A Geiger counter is a hand-held device that can detect radioactivity in elements such as uranium. It measures the level of ionizing radiation present by detecting the emitted particles or rays.
Can a geiger counter detect radioactivity?
Yes, a Geiger counter can detect radioactivity. It measures ionizing radiation such as alpha, beta, and gamma rays by detecting the electric charge produced from ionization of the gas inside the device when radiation passes through it.
What is sesmometer?
a measuring instrument for detecting and measuring the intensity and direction and duration of movements of the ground (as an earthquake)
