Fission
• Benefits– A lot of energy can be
produced from a small amount of raw material
• 1 ton of nuclear material = 1 million tons of coal or 1 million barrels of oil
– Clean source of energy generation – not air polluting like fossil fuels
– Long term source of fuel
• Concerns– Safety accidents have
potential for horrendous harm (immediate and long term, such as cancer)
– No good way to dispose of high level nuclear waste
– Expensive construction and maintenance costs

• Excessive heat can not be contained
• Attempts at “cold” fusion have FAILED.
• “Hot” fusion is difficult to contain

• Benefits– A lot of energy can be
produced from a small amount of raw material
• 1 ton of nuclear material = 1 million tons of coal or 1 million barrels of oil
– Clean source of energy generation – not air polluting like fossil fuels
– Long term source of fuel– Doesn’t create hazardous
radioactive wastes as does nuclear fission
• Concerns– Occur at extremely high
temperatures – like that of sun
– Cannot sustain the reactions long enough to be useful for power generation
– Safety accidents have potential for horrendous harm (immediate and long term, such as cancer)
– Expensive construction and maintenance costs

Summary
• Nuclear Radiation can be naturally occurring or man-made
• Most of radiation we are exposed to is naturally occurring – alpha rays
• Alpha Radiation – weakest (blocked by paper or cloth)• Beta Radiation – medium (blocked by wood or foil)• Gamma Radiation – strongest (blocked by lead or
concrete)
• Key Nuclear Science Pioneers – Henri Beckerel, Marie
and Pierre Curie

SUMMARY - Half-Life Calculations• How to calculate number of half-lives (1/2 x ½ x…) or
1/amount remaining (as decimal or fraction) = 2n where n = no. half-lives
remember percent remaining = 100 – percent decayed
• How to calculate how old something is (no. of half-lives x time per half-life)
• Calculate amount remaining (A) after a certain number of half-lives
A = Ao (where Ao = original amount)
