Yes. Things like soil and coffee have an ingredient in them which makes them radioactive meaning they give off radiation. Bananas are also radioactive but there is nothing to panic about - low levels like the ones found in these objects are fine. Your body can handle them.
yes. eg carbon 14 uranium 238 etc
Naturally occurring radioactive isotopes were created by one or more of the following processes:
- supernova explosions in the past created heavy elements like uranium and the transuranics
- cosmic ray bombardment creates light radioisotopes like carbon-14
- decay transmutes radioisotopes into different daughter isotopes, some radioactive
Yes, some radioactive elements like uranium and thorium occur naturally in the Earth's crust. These elements can emit radiation as they decay over time.

What does francium feel like?
Francium is a highly radioactive and unstable element that is never found in its pure form in nature. If it were to be touched, it would likely react explosively with water or air. Due to its extreme rarity and radioactivity, no one has ever touched or felt francium.
Do nitrogen atoms ever change into other kinds of atoms?
Nitrogen atoms do not spontaneously change into other kinds of atoms. However, in nuclear reactions or processes like radioactive decay, nitrogen atoms can be converted into different atoms.
Is do you ever feel like a plastic bag a simile?
Yes, "Do you ever feel like a plastic bag?" is a simile. It compares feeling emotionally overwhelmed or insignificant to the light and easily tossed around nature of a plastic bag.
Is sodium ever found alone in nature?
Sodium is a highly reactive element and is typically found in nature combined with other elements such as chlorine in salt deposits or in compounds like sodium hydroxide. It is rarely found in its pure form because it readily reacts with air and water.
Which is the heaviest radioactive element?
The heaviest natural radioactive element is Uranium.Man made elements are continuously being made. The latest heaviest superheavyweight man made element to be discovered is element 117 (it is still so new that it hasn't been given a name yet).A little different bit of information about Fermium, a team has captured a piece of its spectrum-the wavelengths of light it absorbs-making it the heaviest element ever to be so measured. It was made in the 1952 detonation of the first thermonuclear bomb. It does not make it as the heaviest element, just the heaviest to have it's light spectrum captured.
How long can radiative material be hazardous in years?
Radio activity never stops. Radioactive material emits radioactive rays for ever. How ever it can be capped but when ever the material is exposed it will start emitting gamma and Beta rays.
Will you ever run out of radioactive substance?
Yup. It will run out cos it is non renewable
What is a con to Ununpentium?
Well, to start with, that is a provisional name, and not the final name. It is a man made substance that does not exist in nature, only about 100 atoms of it have ever been made, it is radioactive, and very unstable- it changes to another material in a fraction of a second.
Is hydrogen ever found uncombined in nature?
is hydrogen uncombined in nature
Will the earths core ever cool?
Yes, the Earth's core is slowly cooling down over time, but this process takes billions of years. The heat generated from the radioactive decay of elements in the core keeps it molten, and the heat loss is very gradual. It is not something that will happen in the near future.
Did Mike Rowe ever appear in Gunsmoke?
No
Did Hilary Rhoda ever appear nude?
No
Did the band Queen ever appear on the Simpsons?
No.
Does water released back into the environment ever come in contact with the radioactive fuel rods?
No, it doesn't.
Was uranium ever used in smoke detectors?
no. The most commonly used radioactive material is Americium
Will Justin Bieber ever appear in Ottawa?
He already came and best concert ever
Has the Jacksonville Jaguars ever appear in a super bowl?
No.
