In water pipes _ is used to detect leakages.
Correct answer: A. Radioisotope
- A. Radioisotope
- B. Light
- C. Current
- D. Heat
Explanation
Radioisotope tracer technology is widely used to detect leakage of process pipe and heat exchanger system pipe that carries liquid and gas in the oil and gas industry. The same technique is also used to identify leaks in water pipes under the ground.

About Nuclear Physics
Atomic nuclei contain protons and neutrons, with nuclear size, mass defect and binding energy describing their stability. The work covers alpha, beta and gamma decay, decay equations, half-life and decay rate, along with radiation safety and medical applications such as imaging, radiotherapy and tracers.
