A. A nuclear power plant produces radioactive wave.

Explanation:

A plant in which a nuclear reactor is used as a source to produce heat is known as nuclear power plant. The heat formed by the reactor is used to form steam which can be used to drive turbines to produce electricity.

The coolant in reactor gets heated by the fission process taking place in the reactor. It is a cyclic process where the steam is condensed and reverted back. A nuclear power plant in active condition produce a small amount of radiation which can be sensed within a radius of 50 miles.
