RADIAC stands for Radiation Detection, Indication And Computation.
A description is given of the main types of radiation monitoring instruments, usually called "radiac" instruments, which would be required by the civil defence authorities in the event of atomic warfare. The instruments discussed include the flash dosemeter, individual dosemeter, dose-rate meter and contamination meter. In each case, an account is given of the purpose of the instrument and the performance characteristics required, and some typical designs are mentioned. The paper concludes with an appendix giving the approved specifications for each instrument discussed.

∙ 11y agoRadio waves will induce a current in any electrical conductor in their path.
The current can be detected and measured by any of the usual means, and
information imposed on the radio waves before they were transmitted can be
separated from the current by a suitable demodulator. The choice of what is
"suitable" depends on the technique employed to tack the information onto
the radio waves in the first place.

How do the four instruments that are used to detect faults work?
four instruments that are used to detect faults are: creep meters, laser-ranging devices, tiltmeters, and satellites. how they work: a creep meter uses a wire stretched across a fault to measure sideways movement the ground. a laser-ranging device uses a laser beam bounced off a reflector to detect any fault movements
What is radio active material?
Radio active material that occurs naturally where human activities exposure to ionizing radiation are naturally-occurring radioactive materials, or NORM. They include uranium and thorium. Radioactive materials are mainly used in engineering and science departments. This type of material emits gamma rays or particles that as radioactive energy.
What instruments are used in rave bands?
The instruments used in rave bands are electronic instruments. They do not use actual instruments that you hold in your hand, everything is done electronically.

Instruments used to detect earth's magnetic stripes?
Magnetometer.
What is radioactive substances?
Radioactive substances are the things that put off radiation. These could be radioactive waste, or even radioactive materials not yet used.
What type of instruments are used to detect a tornado?
Doppler radar can be used to detect tornadoes. Aside from that tornadoes are tracked based on eyewitness reports.
What element is used for storing and transporting radioactive materials?
LEAD
The element used for storing and transporting radioactive materials is?

Is francium used in radioactive lasers?
Francium has an extremely short half life of about 20 minutes so no it is not. Radioactive lasers do not use radioactive materials anyway.
What materials are used to make gamelan instruments?

Is computer heat radioactive?
Maybe, b'cos of the small amounts of radioactive materials used in them( NOT SO SURE). that may affect us.
