Is Hawaii in danger of radiation from the nuclear reactors in Japan?
No, Hawaii is currently not in danger of radiation from the incidents involving the nuclear reactors in Japan.
Is their danger of radiation from a Toyota Prius manufactured after the nuclear accident in japan?
No
Why is the possible collapse of a nuclear power plant in Japan such a danger?
since it is a NUCLEAR power plant, radiation can be released, which is really harmful to people and others. :)
How can a nuclear plant put a home in danger?
If the nuclear plant has an accident that allows radiation to leak, the radiation can make nearby receptors quite ill. Edit: This is a bit of an understatement tbh. If the radiation "leaks" and people nearby are exposed to said radiation, statistically, their chances of all manner of diseases is increased. Mainly cancer.
What are two dangers associated with nuclear fission?
Two dangers associated with nuclear fission are the risk of nuclear accidents, such as the Chernobyl or Fukushima disasters, which can release radiation into the environment and pose health risks to people nearby. Another danger is the potential for proliferation of nuclear weapons if nuclear materials are not properly secured.
What are some of the dangers inherent in a nuclear reactor?
There are a few dangers that are inherent in a nuclear reactor. The major danger inherent in a nuclear reactor is the effects of radiation. Radiation poisoning can be extremely deadly and harmful. Other inherent dangers include radioactive waste and the potential catastrophic damage of an accident such as at Chernobyl.
What are the signs of nuclear radiation?
There are no immediate signed of nuclear radiation.
How much danger does the US face with Japan's nuclear plant radiation fallout?
The U.S does not face much of a threat from the radiation in Japan but it may quite be possible for the minimal amounts of radiation to get here, possibly the amount a microwave emits when activated.
What type of radiation do nuclear weapons emit?
Nuclear weapons emit various types of radiation, including gamma radiation, neutron radiation, and thermal radiation. These forms of radiation can have harmful effects on living organisms and the environment.
How radiation affected by surface temperature?
Nuclear radiation is not affected at all, but radiation by Electromagnetic Radiation is. This is a straight Physics topic, not Nuclear Energy.
Is there gamma radiation in nuclear bombs?
Yes, nuclear bombs produce gamma radiation as a result of the nuclear fission or fusion reactions that release high-energy photons. Gamma radiation is a form of electromagnetic radiation that accompanies the explosion of nuclear devices.
What is the relationship between nuclear radiation and nuclear fallout?
fallout emits nuclear radiation, but lots of other things do too.fallout is particulates from dust size to baseball size, nuclear radiation is a mix of electromagnetic radiation and high speed subatomic particles.
