Radioactivity

the pioneer of radiation research and has made many contributions to the health care field, in particular, to that of radiologic sciences. Curie’s accomplishments as a physicist and chemist have brought about enormous scientific breakthroughs in Radioactivity. These discoveries have paved the way for how radiology is practiced today. Marie Curie was born on November 07, 1867 in Warsaw, Poland. Both her parents where school teachers and they placed extreme importance on education (Huso). Curie was

Born as Maria Skłodowska on November 7,1867 in Warsaw, Poland, she was born to a family who viewed education as very important and essential. She had four siblings; four sisters Sofia, Helena, Bronislawa and a brother Joseph. Due to her father teaching Physics, Marie developed interest in reading and physics. She began to attend a “floating” school to learn since she couldn’t obtain higher education because she was a woman. She overcame many obstacles and discovered things that help cure diseases

What are the problems with America currently today? One problem we have faced in America is environmental pollutions. Environmental pollutions are the harmful filth in the air, we breathe everyday. Perhaps we do not notice them as we breathe. Some filth is seen from a far distance. Factory filth is the main pollution producer in the USA now. One environmental pollution are caused by factories because the product they produce causes the filth out of them. This could be the car production or agricultural

Since some countries in the region have already embarked on the nuclear energy option and some others are planning to do so, an increased attention in the country has been given to protective measures in case of a nuclear/radiological emergency. Experience from nuclear accidents at Chernobyl and recently, in Fukushima showed a lack of sufficient capacity for screening internal contamination of the public and pointed out the necessity for its development [1]. Additionally, increasing the national

education is very fast. It can be proved by so many new things created by the combination of education, especially in science. Long time ago, in New Zealand, there was a man called “The Father of The Nuclear Age” who became the main figure in radioactivity and nuclear physics. His name is Ernest Rutherford. Born as the second son and the fourth of twelve children in his family in New Zealand, on 30th August 1871, Ernest Rutherford grew up by believing that education can be a tool to make a big change

helpful ways such as medical and home use. It can also used to kill bacteria and parasites in food to make them last longer. Henri Becquerel was the scientist that discovered radioactivity in 1896. Becquerel found radioactivity when he was experimenting with x- rays on a cloudy day in Paris. He found radioactivity without

problematic situations. Take the Chernobyl disaster for instance, because of their poorly designed nuclear power plant it released tons of radioactivity which scattered across the atmosphere. This resulted in everyone leaving the city. Another recent incident was in Fukushima (Japan), a tsunami hit the nuclear power plants which caused the tins to break and release radioactivity as well. Still to this day there is radioactive dust scattered all over the ground. Moreover, mining and purifying uranium

study explores the environmental consequences in the marine environment of the accident. Lastly the article outlines the status of the current research about the impact of the fallout on plant and animal life and what remains to be done as the radioactivity continues to spread. The issue of the subject in this article is how the

not a lot of female scientists. Marie Curie became the first woman to receive a nobel prize, and also the first to receive two of them. She was a Polish-French physicist and chemist who discovered two elements and was famous for her work with radioactivity. She got her love of science from her father, a physics and mathematics teacher. She moved to Paris to further her education and there met her future husband, Pierre Curie, and took his place at Sorbonne when he passed away as the first women to

them to their predators dangerous proportions. In the marine environment it is clearly seen this phenomenon. Algae often come to have a radioactivity specifies thousand times higher than the surrounding water, and plankton concentration factor that can become of 5000. aquatic animals that feed on such organisms can reach concentrations even more high. Radioactivity in plants focuses on the leaves and stems more than seeds. It is a factor that hurts herbivores. In the final link in the food chain, man
