Question

redeoactive pollution information​

Answer 1

hello matte!

here is your answer!

The radioactive pollution is defined as the physical pollution of air, water and the other radioactive materials. The ability of certain materials to emit the proton, gamma rays and electrons by their nuclei is known as the radioactivity. The protons are known as the alpha particle and the electrons are also known as the beta particle. Those materials are known as the radioactive elements. The environmental radiations can be from different sources and can be natural or manmade.

The natural radiations are also known as the background radiations. In this the cosmic rays are involved and reach the surface of earth from space. It includes the radioactive elements like radium, uranium, thorium, radon, potassium and carbon. These occur in the rock, soil and water. The man made radiations include the mining and refining of plutonium and thorium. This production and explosion of nuclear weapons include the nuclear fuels, power plants and radioactive isotopes.

Answer 2

ANSWER:

Radioactive pollution occurs when there is presence or depositions of radioactive materials in the atmosphere or environment, especially where their presence is accidental and when it presents an environmental threat due to radioactive decay. The destruction caused by the radioactive materials is because of the emissions of hazardous ionizing radiation (radioactive decay) like beta or alpha particles, gamma rays or neurons in the environment where they exist.

Since the substances are characterized by radiation – because there is a lot of instability of the particles present in the radioactive materials, it can seriously affect, alter and even destroy plant, animal, and human life. The extent of damage or danger posed to the environment depends upon the radioactive material concentration, the energy emitted by the radiation, proximity of the radioactive materials to those exposes, and the radiation type.

CAUSES OF RADIIOACTIVE POLLUTION

1. Nuclear accidents from nuclear energy generation plants

2. The use of nuclear weapons as weapons of mass destruction (WMD)

3. Use of radio isotopes

4. Mining

5. Spillage of radioactive chemicals

6. Tests on radiation

7. Cosmic rays

SOLUTION OF RADIOACTIVE POLLUTION

1. Proper method of disposing radioactive waste

2. Proper labeling

3. Banning of nuclear tests

4. Reusing

5. Proper storage
