i need to research about basic principles of fission reactor, the competition between westinghouse and edison and to describe some medical and industrial applications of radio-isotopes. Can someone give me any info about those 3 questions? or maybe give me a web site that has info on 3 of them...TY

if you cant find the info on medial and industrial apps of radioisotopes, chemistry textbooks will contain them.

From memory, technetium-99m (sumfin liek that) is a common medical isotope. Industrial uses include gauges, used to monitor thickness of eg. paper, or other materials manufactured. Other uses like detecting leaks.

I can't remember the details anymore. But if it's not already in your physics textbook, then it'll be in your chem book. Conquering Chem definitely has it.
