Currently, you are far more likely to be hit by lightening twice than to have any issue with the radiation from Japan in any portion of the United States.
The background radiation numbers in Tokyo (only 150 miles away from the problem) are roughly the same as we have normally in New York. You will receive more radiation from a window seat in a plane, then you will from this situation.
What else can I help you with?
Is it safe to enter Japan after the radiation?
For many years, there was radiation in the air in Japan from the dropping of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. However, Japan is perfectly safe to visit today, with no risk of radiation poisoning.
Did the us know about radiation when they the dropped the bombs on japan?
The US did know about radiation when they dropped the bombs on japan it was a risk they were willing to take to save ournation from going into war with them. hope this helped you.
Why is the robot not at risk of damage from radiation in space?
Robots are at risk of damage from radiation in space. However, they are at less risk than living creatures because they don't have DNA.
What are the risk and benefits of radiation?
Benefit: It can cook your food. Risk: It can cook your eyes.
What are the causes of computer risk?
the contain radiation
Is it true that the longer a person is exposed to radiation and the closer the person is to the radiation the greater the risk?
Yes, this is true. The longer a person is exposed to radiation and the closer they are to the source of radiation, the greater their risk of harm. The amount of radiation absorbed by the body is directly related to the duration and proximity of exposure.
What is most common risk in radiation exposure?
The most common risk associated with radiation exposure is the increased likelihood of developing cancer. Ionizing radiation can damage DNA within cells, leading to mutations that may result in tumor formation over time. The risk is dose-dependent, meaning that higher levels of exposure generally correlate with a greater risk of cancer. Other potential risks include acute radiation sickness at very high exposures, but cancer risk remains the primary concern for lower levels of radiation.
What part of sunlight is a health risk?
ultraviolet radiation
What state state has the greatest risk of having a tsunami?
California California
Will the radiation from Japan's nuclear plant affect the rain?
It won't affect the amount of rain, but the rain water could be slightly radioactive. I very much doubt if it would present a real risk to health etc, but of course there is a certain hysteria whenever radiation is involved in the public mind.
Will Philippines be afected by radiation from japan?
If you rely on the scientific figures/calculations then yes it will, however if the facts are true then so will places such as the UK/America. The fact is that the radiation levels are so low that even if they do affect the Philipines then there will be no risk at all to anybody living in/around the Philipines. Hope this helps
What is the difference between crisis management and risk management?
Risk management involves predicting potential threats and determining the best strategy to deal with those threats, crisis management involves dealing with threats after they have occurred.
