Question
Q3/ write true or false in front of each statement and correct
the false one:
1- High level waste has a large amount of radioactive activity
and is thermally hot.
2- Low level waste contains very dangerous materials.
3- The nature and extent of pollution depends on the
materials present in the effluent and on the quantity
discharged.
4- Rate of diffusion is not affected on the radioactive
pollution.
5- The nuclear fuel cycle is one of the natural sources of
radioactive waste.
6- Solar radiation is one of the anthropogenic sources of
radioactive waste.
7- Half life is one of the factors that affected on the
radioactive pollution.
8- The sources of radioactive wastes are natural and
anthropogenic sources.
9- The release of radioactive substances or high-energy
particles into the air water, or earth as a result of human
activity, this is called radioactivity.
10- Low Level Waste LLW contains 90% volume of waste.
11-Intermediate level waste requires shielding when being
handled.
12-Intermediate Level Waste ILW contains 12%volume of
waste.
13- Current levels of HLW are increasing about 12,000 metric
tons per year.
14- High Level Waste HLW contains 95% of radioactivity.
15- Workers should wear protective garments and glass
spectacles should be screened from radiation.
