What is radioactivity

Physics
1 answer:
KATRIN_1 [288]4 years ago
3 0
Radioactivity refers to the particles which are emitted from nuclei as a result of nuclear instability. Because the nucleus experiences the intense conflict between the two strongest forces in nature, it should not be surprising that there are many nuclear isotopes which are unstable and emit some kind of radiation.

bonufazy [111]
The gravitional potential energy, relative to the bottom of the giant drop, in joules, is (9800) times (the height of the drop in meters). That's the PE of the empty car only, not counting any hapless screaming souls who may be trapped in it at that moment.

1. How is a whistling teapot like a volcano?
oksano4ka [1.4K]
Because of the build up of pressure. There is so much steam coming from such a compressed point, it’s coming out in force.

Now think of that same spot being closed, it only has one place to go but it can’t leave, so that pressure will build and build and then BOOM, it explodes.

In short, the answer is the pressure being released from a small point, and how that energy is released.
