Radioactivity is important for a number of reasons. It is the basis of both nuclear power and nuclear weapons. It allows for such things as medical X-ray examinations. Radioactive decay in the interior of the planet Earth is the source of the heat which causes the mantle to be liquid, and thereby causes continental drift, and earthquakes and volcanoes. None of those would exist without radioactivity. The study of radioactivity has provided scientists with many vital clues about the structure of atoms, and the behavior of subatomic particles.
The discovery of radioactivity was important because it led to the development of nuclear physics and important scientific breakthroughs, such as the understanding of atomic structure and the development of nuclear energy. It also paved the way for advancements in medicine, industry, and technology.
Radioactivity affect the water molecules. Radioactivity makes it harmful
Henri Becquerel, Marie Curie, and Pierre Curie were important in the discovery of radiation. Henri Becquerel discovered radioactivity in 1896, while Marie Curie and Pierre Curie furthered research on radioactivity and isolated the elements polonium and radium.
What other sort of radioactivity is there?
Radioactivity can be induced in ordinary matter by artificial transmutation.
no but she built the knowleage of radioactivity.
You cannot measure radioactivity in litres
Radioactivity in Japan is about 15,000 terabecquerels.
NO. Henri Becquerel was the discoverer of radioactivity.
You need radioactivity, for many things such as x-rays.
Radioactivity has nothing to do with diffusion.
is radioactivity extensive or intensive or chemical property
