Radiation 101: how far will radioactive water leaking from nuclear plant go?(USA)Radiation is contaminating seawater near the Fukushima Daiichinuclear complex, but workers are...Grier, Peter
The radioactivity of radium then must be enormous. This substance is the most radioactive natural element,a million times more so than uranium. It is so radioactive that it gives off a pale blue glow. Yet it would still take the Curies another three years to produce a pure radium salt. ...
A natural source of ionizing radiation is radon, a radioactive material found underground. X-rays are a good example of man-made ionizing radiation. The three types of ionizing radiation we're going to discuss here are alpha particles, beta particles and rays. Particulate radiation involves fast...
The phosphor is mixed into a plastic and molded to make most glow-in-the-dark stuff. Occasionally you will see something glowing but it does not need charging. The most common place is on the hands of expensive watches. In these products, the phosphor is mixed with a radioactive element,...
Radioactive particles in rocks slowly decay, constantly replenishing the heat. Geothermal energy harnesses that heat to create energy and warm homes and buildings. However, geothermal energy isn't widely used despite being clean and renewable. It's expensive and often location-specific, usually nea...
We should all be drinking lots of water every day, meaning it’s crucial that it is as clean and pure as possible. Here’s information about how to make your tap water safe plus my choice for water filtration. MY LATEST VIDEOS
To make sure furosemide is safe for you, tell your doctor if you have ever had: an electrolyte imbalance (such as low levels of potassium or magnesium in your blood); enlarged prostate, bladder obstruction, or other urination problems; ...
I think of these probably-defunct devices as my own rough equivalent of nuclear waste, but instead of radioactive isotopes they may hold old personal data that I don’t want to see leak out. That’s “may” because unlike spent reactor fuel that we know has to be kept safe, these gadg...
Some vacuum cleaners do use filters like this to stop bigger particles of dust and dirt—but how do you catch smaller dirt particles as well? You could make a very fine filter or you could put several filters on top of one another, but in a vacuum cleaner they would clog up very ...
