Examples are:
- nondestructive control
- sterilization of foods, drugs, etc.
- tracers
- sources of energy
- treatment of wastes
- radiopolymerization
- radiofluorescent paints
etc.
Isotopes are atoms of the same element with the same number of protons but different number of neutrons. Radioisotopes are isotopes that are unstable and undergo radioactive decay, emitting radiation in the process. They are commonly used in medicine, industry, and research.

Isotopes are useful in various fields such as medicine, industry, and environmental science. In medicine, they are used for diagnostic imaging, cancer treatments, and in tracing biological processes. In industry, they are used for quality control and product testing, while in environmental science, isotopes can be used to track migration patterns of animals or pollutants in the environment.
Zirconium does have radioactive isotopes, but the main ones used in industry are not radioactive.
- Isotopes are used as sources of radiation in medicine, sterilization, nondestructive control, etc.- Isotopes can be used as tracers- Isotopes can be used as energy source- Isotopes are used for radioactive dating- Isotopes are used in chemical analysis- Isotopes are used in many instruments- Isotopes are used as source of nuclear energy in bombs and nuclear reactorsetc.

no
Radio active isotopes are unstable isotopes of an element as there neutron number degenerate by emission of light or medium.

The use of nuclear energy in civilian society is to generate electricity. In the military it is to make bombs (and hopefully not use them). There are also some uses in medicine where radio isotopes can be used for diagnosis and treatment. These isotopes are produced by irradiation in low power reactors which enable short lived radio isotopes to be obtained as required.
Francium.
Natural chromium is not radioactive. However, there are radioactive isotopes of chromium, such as chromium-51, that are man-made through nuclear reactions. These radioactive isotopes are used in various medical and scientific applications.
Nuclear energy or nuclear technology is mainly used for producing electricity but is also useful for producing active isotopes which are used in medecine and industry
