One of the most interesting things about radiation from my perspective as a Geology enthusiast is how much the Earth is actually heated by the radioactive material inside of it. Radiation along with primordial heat left over from the formation of the planet are the most significant sources of heat inside of our planet.

However, the source of that heat mainly comes from radioactive decay and the heat left over from the formation of the planet.

While I'm no geologist (yet🤞) my best guess would be that the Sun disappearing wouldn't affect the inside of the Earth too much. I imagine it would stay tectonically active for quite a long time still.

Heating from the Earth becomes more important than solar heating only a relatively short distance into the ground, so the vast majority of the planet's volume would remain hot without noticing the sun was even there at all. It depends exactly where you are but in most places the internal heating becomes more important after only a few hundred meters.

This is not necessarily the case if you get hit with ionizing radiation (since if you get unlucky it can and will smash both strands at once) but, the actual reason our DNA is double stranded, that it's a double helix like everyone knows, is that the strands are each other's mirror image. So if you have a bit of one strand and the other is smashed up by any kind of incoming damage, it can repair itself by using the other strand as a guide. (Not really "by itself", it still requires raw materials and a few proteins to do this.)

@adventofnull 2 жыл бұрын

I mean that glassware would present enormous danger if it broke/shattered, spraying radioactive particles all over the place. The real danger is probably those fake amazon radioactive-adjacent items that contain (thorium?) dust.

@Cthulhu013 2 жыл бұрын

Regarding the glassware, it's only dangerous if you swallow it or get inside your body. Or as he stated, it's very close to your body for long periods of time. With glassware, that's not going to be the case, because we don't use them as pillows. However! Let's say you have that glassware on your counter and your asshole cat knocks it to the ground and the glass shatters ... Now you have a potential problem. Glass particles will be suspended in the air, and as such, so will uranium. You might breathe these in, completely unaware. Larger or smaller pieces could end up in your skin. This isn't going to kill you of course. In fact, it probably won't cause you any noticeable health issues. But you might be a little more susceptible to cancer down the line in placed where you came in contact, such as lungs, or stomach or points of laceration if those particles resided in your body for a long period of time. There used to be something called Radium dials, which Radium was used as paint which glowed in the dark, especially for military equipment like compasses. The women handling the paint day in and day out for long periods of time eventually became very irradiated, especially after failing to be told that the paint they worked with was radioactive. Even worse, these women were instructed to put the paint brush tips in their mouths to keep the brushes pointed ... Many died because of this. They also painted their nails and skin with the paint, because of its attractive glowy effect. I happen to have a Radium Dial in my house, the paint has long degraded to dust. if it were ever cracked and the dust leaked out, this could post a health risk.

@@Cthulhu013 Good writeup! The Radium Girls story is a heinous one -- it's one of those things that make you glad we don't live in The Past (and a little anxious that we're unknowingly doing the same kinds of things!) Regarding the uranium cookware, the question I'd respond with is that this is *cookware*. We don't eat it, but we eat things that are in it. Is it impossible for there to be seepage from the cookware to the food? Even without the thought of a small chuck of the glass breaking off in the food, the simple process of heating it up to 450 degrees f with some potentially acidic foods in it seems like there'd be the potential for issues.

@lloydevans2900 11 ай бұрын

@@bvoyelr The only acid which can etch glass is hydrofluoric acid, and that is never going to be in food or drink of any kind. Glass is not affected by any other kind of acid - even concentrated nitric or sulfuric acids can be kept indefinitely in glass bottles without a problem. Alkalis on the other hand are another matter entirely - strong alkali will slowly etch glass. There aren't many foods which contain strong alkalis, but there are a few - the Swedish "lutefisk" is an example - white fish preserved with lye. So if you were pre-soaking a piece of lutefisk in water (a requirement to make it edible before cooking) using that uranium glass bowl, there is a chance that the alkali would etch the glass and release some of the uranium into the contents. The same would be possible for any other foods preserved with lye - there may be some others, but lutefisk is the only one I can think of right now. Incidentally, you don't really have much to worry about with radiation from the uranium glass. A geiger counter will pick it up if held close enough, but that alone is indication that the radiation from the uranium is not very penetrating. Which is true of either naturally occurring uranium or depleted uranium: The main isotope present is U-238, with natural uranium containing about 0.7% U-235. Both of these isotopes are alpha-particle emitters, and these are the most weakly penetrating of all particulate radiation. For example, a single sheet of paper is enough to block alpha particles, and even if you were holding that uranium glass with your bare hands, your skin would block most of the radiation. In fact, most of the radiation from the uranium in the glass will be blocked by the glass itself, with the exception of any uranium atoms which are at or near the surface - it is the alpha particles from these which the geiger counter is detecting.

Are interesting things guaranteed to be interesting, or after the homework is it possible that a cricket farted on the interesting thing and gave the delightful machine a false positive?

If it helps: that’s the one part we know for sure: it was a train car converted into a diesel bus

yeah. cezio 137 is from the accident in Goiânia. if you walk through some neighborhood there with an gaiger counter you can find some very interesting things. although the most dangerous waste is buried under lead and as concrete

Did I miss the part where you test the gas lantern? I just bought one and I was very curious to know what it’s readings were when I saw it on the table!

Me: *watches every episode of TMR and Scam Nation the moment KZfaq shows them to me* KZfaq: "New episode of TMR, uploaded....2 days ago." And don't tell me about the stupid bell. I don't want to have to clear notifications on my devices just for KZfaq to put content it knows I want to see on my front page.

Definitely wouldn't eat out of that dish before I did more research on uranium oxide leaching and heavy metal poisoning. Safe to have on a shelf as a curio though.

great video ... but i feel like the music i really loud compared to the talking, especially in the begining when doing the breakdown of radiation.

Theoretically, even if the car was exposed to irradiated fallout particles, there's a thing you can do called washing the vehicle, which would remove most or all of those particles, at least on the washed surfaces.

No way! I started collecting uranium glass just a few months ago. Beware, it's an addicting hobby. I can't stop spending money. 😭

What would happen if the uranium dish shattered? Would the glass dust and fragments be a danger as they could be missed in cleaning and cling to people?

No this amount of radation is completely harmless the increased risk isn't even worth the most paranoid of people to worry about you probably expose your self to more radation going out side for q minute than you would carrying a lot of the dusk it's radium you need to watch out for qnd if you ever come across cobalt your already dead

microwaves arent stopped by the metal grate, but they are significantly slowed by it. However the microwave radiation will reach a few millimeters past the metal grate in front of the microwave. But the glass panel in front of it is much further and thicker than that. If you were to take the glass panel off and put your tongue right up against the grate you might be able to feel it "it takes about 10 half lives for something to disappear" Lol, spoken like a physicist!

You do know the wave is larger than the holes in the grate so no it dosent the heat does but the wave dosent otherwise touching the door would burn you

I'm not sure how expensive and rare they are but there is a piece of stoneware call the revigator and it has radioactive paint on the inside. Basically a crock with radiation paint on the inside and you would fill it up with water and drink. Because it was supposed to cure you all your illnesses.
