Final Jeopardy

NUCLEAR ENERGY

FOOD AND WATER

Nuclear Energy200 Points

At the centre of nuclear reactors are these (which are no bigger than the

tip of your finger).

Nuclear Energy200 Points

Back to question board

What are fuel pellets?

CANDU nuclear fuel pellets are made from this.

Nuclear Energy400 Points

What is naturally occurring uranium? (Mined in Canada)

Nuclear Energy400 Points

Back to question board

Nuclear Energy600 Points

Fission occurs when this part of the atom is split.

Nuclear Energy600 Points

What is the nucleus?

Back to question board

Nuclear Energy800 Points

If the neutrons released during nuclear fission can be made to split

more atoms, it is called this.

Nuclear Energy800 Points

What is a chain reaction?

Back to question board

Nuclear Energy1000 Points

There are this many operating CANDU reactors in Canada.

Nuclear Energy1000 Points

What is 19 (at four sites)?

Back to question board

Nuclear Medicine200 Points

Radiation therapy works by damaging this in a cell.

Nuclear Medicine200 Points

Back to question board

What is DNA?

Nuclear Medicine400 Points

In 1951, two of this type of machine first started treating cancer using

radiation.

Nuclear Medicine400 Points

Back to question board

What are Cobalt-60 therapy units (also known as Cobalt “bombs”)?

Nuclear Medicine600 Points

Nuclear medicine began in the 1950s by doctors who were

focused on treating this.

Nuclear Medicine600 Points

Back to question board

What is thyroid disease?

Nuclear Medicine800 Points

This is the most widely used diagnostic medical isotope.

Nuclear Medicine800 Points

Back to question board

What Technetium-99m?

Nuclear Medicine1000 Points

In this form of treatment, radiation sources can be inserted directly into or

beside tumours to kill cancer cells.

Nuclear Medicine1000 Points

Back to question board

What is brachytherapy?

Nuclear Applications200 Points

Photocopiers use small amounts of radioactive material to do this.

Back to question board

What is eliminate static and prevent paper from sticking together?

Nuclear Applications200 Points

This method of testing a structure does not cause damage to the

structure.

Nuclear Applications400 Points

Back to question board

What is non-destructive testing or NDT?

Nuclear Applications400 Points

This type of measuring tool uses radiation to make very precise

measurements.

Nuclear Applications600 Points

Back to question board

What is a nuclear gauge?

Nuclear Applications600 Points

This is the radioactive material usually used in smoke detectors.

Nuclear Applications800 Points

Back to question board

What is americum-241?

Nuclear Applications800 Points

This method for checking the quality of welding uses radioactive

materials.

Nuclear Applications1000 Points

Back to question board

What is industrial radiography?

Nuclear Applications1000 Points

Food and Water200 Points

Food irradiation can help prevent these from being transported across

borders.

Back to question board

Food and Water200 Points

What are insects?

Food and Water400 Points

Taking salt out of water is known as this.

Back to question board

Food and Water400 Points

What is desalination?

Food and Water600 Points

Radiation can help do this to harmful insects so that offspring are not

produced.

Back to question board

Food and Water600 Points

What is sterilize?

Food and Water800 Points

This food preservation process is similar to x-raying luggage at the

airport.

Back to question board

Food and Water800 Points

What is food irradiation?

Food and Water1000 Points

This type of desalination is currently used in Kazakhstan, India and

Japan.

Back to question board

Food and Water1000 Points

What is nuclear desalination?

Space Exploration200 Points

Nuclear rocket engines offer this big advantage over chemical rocket

engines.

Back to question board

What is much lighter fuel?

Space Exploration200 Points

This type of power source was first used on a US Navy satellite in 1961.

Space Exploration400 Points

Back to question board

What is a radioisotope thermo-electric generator (RTG)?

Space Exploration400 Points

NASA launched this RTG-powered space probe to study Saturn in 1997.

Space Exploration600 Points

Back to question board

What is Cassini?

Space Exploration600 Points

Radioisotope thermo-electric generators (RTGs) convert the heat

generated by this into electricity.

Space Exploration800 Points

Back to question board

What is the decay of plutonium-238?

Space Exploration800 Points

The New Horizons probe, which uses RTG technology, was launched

in 2006 to look at this object in space.

Space Exploration1000 Points

Back to question board

What is Pluto?

Space Exploration1000 Points

The Category is:Food Irradiation

Many food irradiation machines use this as their source of radiation.
