O uso pedagógico do filme “Radioactive” no estudo da física moderna

Abstract

In this work, we intend to investigate the various concepts presented in the 2019 film “Radioactive”, released on streaming platforms. The film presents the historical context experienced by the famous Polish scientist Marie Curie, the first woman to receive Nobel Prizes in Physics and Chemistry and to become a professor at the University of Paris. Among the various concepts present in the film, radioactive decay of matter is presented, which contributes to the understanding of atomic structure, the relationship between the use of radiation in therapeutic processes, the use of X-rays in battlefields, etc. The investigation of these concepts was carried out through a qualitative approach using a bibliographic review and resulted in the production of material that can be used in the classroom by teachers and students to deal with modern Physics and Chemistry, allowing the integration of these concepts with our daily lives, enabling their use as a starting point for interdisciplinary discussions
