@nofatchxplzthx "the force that holds the atoms together is weaker than the force that repels them apart" excuse my ignorants.. but why or how did it stick together in the first place?
-
@pyrot3chs you actually did, @0:31
-
@pyrot3ch your comment is gibberish
-
@pyrot3chs uhm .. actually .... gamma rays are particles of light ..... light by the way contains energy therefor is not a form of energy .... light is made of a particle known as photons ...
-
this was very simple and lovely .. u just explained it widelly and injected to my brain .. thanx to whoever you are .. thanx thanx

Please YouTube! Please stop kids from posting incorrect video's as other kids use these videos to learn it and do their homework from as they can't be arsed picking up a book. Your single handedly breeding retarded kids who won't have a clue how things work.
Imagine a kid comes along and watches this, makes his own video with his own mistakes in it, six kids and six video's later and we've then got pink elephants smashing into each other creating a chain reaction of bubble gum.

you sounded as if you didn't know what you were talking about
-
exactly i didnt understand shit
-
you need to explain why the element decays and HOW it is unstabble, i already know why but others may not know
i dont wanna get too technical so here is a short summary
the force that holds the atoms together is weaker than the force that repels them apart

@DarthHater100 Your still wrong, half-life is the awesomest video game ever

Erm.. the problem is you say some fundermentally incorrect things... the radiation is the particle for a start.

Well, in the case of this video the atom shown is un-named, and can therefore be giving off alpha and beta radiation, which is the particle itself, or gama radiation which is just a ray of energy, so it can go either way

Don't explain shit you do not understand. I hate kids like you who attempt to explain such a concept and fail horribly.
Radioactive decay is not simple. I assure you it utilizes far more elementary physics and mathematics than you are capable. Furthermore, you know nothing of simple quantum mechanics... nor of simple expoential decay.

No where did i mention that this was "simple", only rather the entire concept. Not to mention that of course i didnt go in depth becasue 99% of the youtube community is far too undereducated to grasp such a subject. this is a general overview, not a college lecture...
