Environmental radioactivity g) to that of the soil water (Bq ml). If the radioactivity is tightly bonded to by the minerals in the soil then less radioactivity can be absorbed by crops and grass growing in the soil. One dramatic source of man-made radioactivity is a nuclear weapons test. The glassy trinitite formed by the first atom bomb contains radioisotopes formed by neutron activation and nuclear fission. In addition some natural radioisotopes are present. A recent paper reports the levels of long-lived radioisotopes in the trinitite. The trinitite was formed from feldspar and quartz which were melted by the heat. Two samples
Tesla (unit) One tesla is equivalent to: One tesla is equal to 1 V·s/m. This can be shown by starting with the speed of light in vacuum, "c" = (εμ), and inserting the SI values and units for "c" (), the vacuum permittivity ε (), and the vacuum permeability μ (). Cancellation of numbers and units then produces this relation. For the relation to the units of the magnetising field (ampere per metre or Oersted), see the article on permeability. Tesla (unit) The tesla (symbol T) is a derived unit of the magnetic field strength (also, magnetic flux density) in the International
