The negative impacts of radiation on a country's economy may include :
- Increased rate of mortality
- Destruction of food crops and cattles
- Environmental contamination
- Long term health complications
Radiation has proven to be very useful in medicine, power, defense and other sectors if adequately deployed. However, it's negative impact can also be overwhelming.
Some of the negative impacts of radiation include :
- Radiation could cause death thousand to millions of people within minutes. Such could result from bomb attacks or release of toxic nuclear substances into the environment.
- The effect of radiation does not only pose risk to life, it could also lead to destruction of crops and cattles. Causing famine and unquantifiable losses.
- Nuclear radiation may be so deadly that it renders several Radius or perimeter of an environment inhabitable. Such is the situation of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
- Nuclear radiation often poses the risk of terminal diseases such as cancer upon exposure .

Answer:
(b) the night would be half as long
Explanation:
- As the earth, if rotated twice as fast than it does now and the sun stayed the same then the night would be as half as long as the rotation of the planet on its axis would be double to that of its and 12 hours of night would be as long as the speed of the axial rotation.
Igneous rocks form from magmas, and most magmas are associated with plate tectonics. Mafic (basaltic) and ultramafic magmas form along the divergent midoceanic ridges and are major components of new oceanic crust. More felsic magmas, such as andesites and rhyolites, are associated with the edges of continental crust at subduction zones along converging plate boundaries. Whether a magma is intermediate or felsic may depend on the relative amounts of oceanic crust and continental crust in the subduction zone that melt to form the magma. The great abundance of granitic intrusions in continental crust is thought to be related to the partial melting of the lower continental crust.
Intraplate igneous activity occurs in the interior of a single continental plate and is thought to be related to mantle plumes (such as the eruptions at Yellowstone National Park) or flood basalts. Intraplate activity is not associated with moving plate boundaries such as subduction zones.
