What kind of radioisotope should be used when detecting leakeages?

Most likely gamma radiations emitter so that they can penetrate t5he ground layers to reach the detector while alpha and beta would be instantly stopped.
Also the radioisotope has to be of a short half-life time (not extremely short) so that it would not remain in the water (if it'a a water pipe leakage) for long causing harm to humans.

What kind of protective equipment is there after a radioisotope is ingested?
None, I am afraid. Once the radioisotope is INSIDE the body, any EXTERNAL protective equipment is useless. The only helpful approach would be aiding the excretion of the radioactive substance, but the possibility of eliminating the radioisotope (through the urine, faeces, breath or sweat) depends very much on the type of isotope and on its chemical form-

that depends on what kind of soap it is

Why should clothes be rinsed after washing?
Since clothes are normally washed with some kind of laundry soap or detergent, they should be rinsed to remove the soap.
What kind of wastes should be put into the broken glass container?
Yes, it can.
Nuclear medicine techniques work through the detection of this kind of radiation injected into the body by adding a radioisotope to a certain drug?
Gamma rays are a type of radiation. Nuclear medicine techniques work through the detection of this kind of radiation injected into the body by adding a radioisotope to a certain drug.

What kind of security measures are taken by court houses?
In order to enter the individual courtrooms in a court house, one must go through a metal detecting device as well as all of their belongings. This is to insure that no weapons of any kind can be brought in.
Can psychic mediums detect demons?
Depends on the medium. Assuming you believe in psychics and that kind of stuff (which personally I do not subscribe to). Different mediums will claim different powers, for example predicting the future or talking with deceased loved ones. Most probably do not have "demon detecting" on their list of skills. If demon detecting is your primary purpose, you'd be best going to a priest, preferably catholic.

What kind of particles does the emitter create in a smoke alarm?
Smoke alarms typically use photo-electric sensors or alpha-particle emitters, although the photo-electric sensors are much better for detecting smoldering fires.
What is a half life of a radioisotope?
The half life of a radioisotope, or anything with a half life, is the period of time in which any individual component has a 50% chance of undergoing a reaction. Suppose you have 100 atoms of a radioisotope and the half life is 1 day. After a day, 50% (half) of the atoms will have decayed so there will be 50 left. After another day, half of those will decay and there will be 25 left. After another day there will be a 50% chance there will be 13 or more and the same chance of 12 or less and so on. This has serious consequences for radioactive waste. If you start of with a tonne of it and it has a half life of 10,000 years, it will be 60,000 years before there is less than 16 kilograms.

Does drinking any kind of liquid before taking a pregnancy test give false negatives?
Pregnancy tests work by detecting human chorionic gonadotropin in the urine. Anything that serves to dilute the urine will reduce the concentration of HCG, and could potentially cause a false positive. That said, the tests are pretty sensitive; as long as you follow the instructions, it should work.
What type of virus is a change virus?
You're probably thinking of what's called a polymorphic virus, which is a kind of virus that modifies itself when it infects a computer. The idea behind this is that by modifying itself, the virus won't be quite the same on any two computers, so antivirus programs will have a harder time detecting it. Fortunately, many antivirus programs today are better at detecting these viruses than they once were, and so they are easier to remove.
What kind of exhaust can should you get for your snowmobile?
