21/04/23Circuit breakersCircuit breakers
Residual Current Circuit Breakers (RCCBs) are often used with fuses. They have some advantages over fuses:
1) They are safer – they don’t get hot
2) They react more quickly
3) They can be switched off for repairs
4) They are easy to reset
5) Each RCCB is attached to a certain circuit, so if one switches off you can see which circuit has a fault

Introduction to RadioactivityIntroduction to RadioactivitySome substances are classed as “radioactive” – this means that they are unstable and continuously give out radiation:
Radiation
The nucleus is more stable after emitting some radiation – this is called “radioactice decay” and the activity is measured in “Becquerels (Bq)”.

Types of radiationTypes of radiation
1) Alpha () – an atom decays into a new atom and emits an alpha particle (2 protons and 2 ______ – the nucleus of a ______ atom)
2) Beta () – an atom decays into a new atom by changing a neutron into a _______ and electron. The fast moving, high energy electron is called a _____ particle.
3) Gamma – after or decay surplus ______ is sometimes emitted. This is called gamma radiation and has a very high ______ with short wavelength. The atom is not changed.

21/04/23Uses of Radioactivity 4 - Treating Uses of Radioactivity 4 - Treating CancerCancer
High energy gamma radiation can be used to kill cancerous cells. However, care must be taken in order to enure that the gamma radiation does not affect normal tissue as well.
Radioactive iodine can be used to treat thyroid cancer. Iodine is needed by the thyroid so it naturally collects there. Radioactive iodine will then give out beta radiation and kill cancerous cells.

Half lifeHalf life
The decay of radioisotopes can be used to measure the material’s age. The HALF-LIFE of an atom is the time taken for HALF of the radioisotopes in a sample to decay…
At start there are 16 radioisotope
s
After 1 half life half have
decayed (that’s 8)
After 3 half lives another
2 have decayed (14 altogether)
After 2 half lives another
half have decayed (12 altogether)
= radioisotope = new atom formed

the uranium remains – the
other 4/8 is lead
Now only 2/8 of uranium
remains – the other 6/8 is
lead
Now only 1/8 of uranium
remains – the other 7/8 is
leadSo it must have taken 3 half lives for the sample to decay until only 1/8 remained (which means that there is 7 times as much lead). Each half life is 4,000,000,000 years so the sample is 12,000,000,000 years old.

Uses of radioisotopes - tracersUses of radioisotopes - tracersA tracer is a small amount of radioactive material used to detect things, e.g. a leak in a pipe:
Gamma source
Tracers can also be used to develop better plant fertilisers and in medicine to detect tumours:
The radiation from the radioactive source is picked up above the ground, enabling the leak in the pipe to be detected.
