Yes, uranium gives off dangerous amounts of radiation.
It's a semantic thing - by definition, if something gives out radiation, then it is radioactive. If an element gives off radiation, then it is a 'radioactive' element. If it does not give out radiation, then it is not 'radioactive'.
Polonium-210 primarily emits alpha radiation, which consists of two protons and two neutrons. This type of radiation has a low penetrating power and is highly ionizing, making it hazardous if ingested or inhaled.
Yes. Things like soil and coffee have an ingredient in them which makes them radioactive meaning they give off radiation. Bananas are also radioactive but there is nothing to panic about - low levels like the ones found in these objects are fine. Your body can handle them.
Let's try to give off pleasant vibrations.
A body that can give off electromagnetic radiation (light) such as the Sun, a lightbulb, etc.
Uranium is a natural, radioactive chemical element.
radiation
There are many electronic devices in the world that do in fact give off radiation. These devices include computers and microwaves for example.
none. They are safe.
If it is a radioactive isotope of uranium, then it would be radiation waves, specifically gamma waves.
Various radioactive substances such as Plutonium and Uranium give off a combination of alpha, beta and gamma rays as the isotope decays.
Protactinium-233 is transformed in uranium-233 emitting beta radiation.
The process by which materials give off energy from a uranium atom was named radioactivity by Marie Curie in the early 20th century. She discovered that certain elements, like uranium, emit radiation spontaneously.
Many things give off electromagnetic radiation. Cell phones, the body, x-rays, and supposedly ghosts and spirits. EMF detectors (or electro-magnetic-field detector) are also supposed to pick up electromagnetic radiation given off by anything it's pointed at.
All cell phones give off varying degrees of radiation.
Yes. Radiation is emanated from radioactive material, so the amount of radiation that someone "gives off" is a function of how much radioactive material they have inside them.
