In the United States, radioactive waste is divided into three main categories based on their activity, their heat generation potential, and what they physically contain. Low level radioactive waste is the least dangerous type of nuclear waste. It contains relatively small amounts of radioactive substances with short half-lives.

Which of the following methods is most commonly used to dispose of low level radioactive wastes?
A.
activating reactions so the material is no longer radioactive
B.
sealing the waste into steel tanks and burying the tanks deep into the ground
C.
compacting the waste and burying it in a shallow landfill
D.
sealing in a biohazard bag and disposing the bag with ordinary trash

Several processes form metal ore. match each process to its description. volcanic activity weathering hydrothermal energy rocks break down as they interact with air and water. arrowright density differences and other factors cause metals to concentrate in igneous rocks. arrowright seawater heats up from contact with hot rock, and metals dissolve in it. the water rises and contacts cooler water, causing metal ores to settle on the ocean floor. arrowright

The sun generates both mechanical and electromagnetic waves. which statement about those wave is true?

There is a theory that indicates that dinosaurs became extinct when about 65 million years ago, a large asteroid hit the earth surface. dust caused by this collision blocked the sunlight reaching the earth's surface and many forms of life became extinct due to the cold. fearing this threat, how large the radius of an asteroid should you be looking for if the dangerous asteroid size is approximately the same as the one that killed the dinosaurs? available data suggests that about 18% of that asteroid's mass ended up as a dust spread evenly over earth after eventually settling out of the upper atmosphere. about 0.0180 g/cm^2 of dust, which is chemically different than the earth's rock, covered the earth's surface. typical asteroids have a density of about 1.9 g/cm^3. now that we know the size of the asteroid, how much energy was released during impact, assuming all of it was just the kinetic energy of the asteroid right before the impact?
