In radioactive decay, primarily radiation and particles are released. Radiation can be in the form of alpha particles, beta particles, gamma rays, or neutrons. These emissions are a result of unstable atomic nuclei undergoing radioactive decay to become more stable.

Particles or electromagnetic waves are primarily released in radioactive decay.

A = - dN/dt

A = total activity

N = number of particles

t = time

Is radioactive decay a source of sun's energy?

No. The Sun is powered by nuclear fusion, primarily of hydrogen into helium. Radioactive decay is sort of the reverse process, in which a heavy element will break down into lighter ones.


Do radioactive objects emit heat?

Yes, radioactive objects emit heat as a byproduct of their radioactive decay process. This heat is produced by the energy released during the decay of unstable atomic nuclei.

When an atom undergoes radioactive decay the energy released in the reaction comes from what?

The energy released in radioactive decay comes from the conversion of mass from the parent atom into energy according to Einstein's famous equation, E=mcΒ². This energy is released in the form of radiation or kinetic energy of the decay products.

What is the process that creates motion inside the earth?

The motion inside the Earth is primarily driven by the heat released from the decay of radioactive elements and leftover heat from its formation. This heat creates convection currents in the molten outer core, which generates a magnetic field and drives the movement of tectonic plates on the Earth's surface.


Is plutonium cold or warm?

Plutonium is warm; the cause is the heat released by radioactive decay.
