What is Nuclear Pollution?

Question

i need to know bout dis!! for exam!!

Answer 1

Radioactive fallout from a nuclear blast or the release into the atmosphere of a measurable amount of a radioactive substance.

Answer 2

Any undesirable effect caused to the environment due to radioactive substances or radiations is called Nuclear pollution.
Major source is the Nuclear power plants. If traces of the radioactive substances are present in the water that is released from the plant, it will cause Nuclear pollution. Emission of radiations can also cause this kind of pollution.
It affects almost all life forms in the surrounding environment. From planktons to Human beings nothing is spared.
To be more specific, the radiations can cause mutations that lead to cancer, and the dose of radiation or the level of pollution determines lethality or how deadly it is.

Answer 3

waste type containing radioactive chemical elements that does not have a practical purpose. It is sometimes the product of a nuclear process, such as nuclear fission. The majority of radioactive waste is "low-level waste", meaning it has low levels of radioactivity per mass or volume. This type of waste often consists of items such as used protective clothing, which is only slightly contaminated but still dangerous in case of radioactive contamination of a human body through ingestion, inhalation, absorption, or injection.

Answer 4

You probably mean nuclear waste. i.e. materials that are radioactive and are man made. Power station waste is a good example (by the way, coal fired stations usually produce more nuclear waste released to the environment than nuclear stations.)

Answer 5

nuclear waste

Answer 6

Da....dat be....Radiation. me thinks.
