The beta particle is actually?
an electron
What do most scientists think a beta particle actually is?
A beta particle can be an electron, or a positron (anti-electron).
What is the strength of a beta particle?
The strength of a beta particle is its ability to cross the absorber to reach the detector.Now the strength of a beta particle depends upon the energy of the beta particle and thickness of the absorber.
Is a beta particle an electron?
Yes, a beta particle is an electron.
A beta particle is actually what?
Depending on the type of beta decay, it's either an electron or its antiparticle, the positron.
A high-speed electron ejected from a nucleus durng radioactive decay is called a?
an alpha particle
What is the difference between a beta plus particle and a beta minus particle?
The difference between a beta plus and beta minus particle is the electrical charge. The charges are equal, but opposite. The beta minus particle is an electron with a negative charge, while the beta plus particle is an anti-electron or positron with a positive charge.
In a beta particle emission what does the neutron split into?
In beta particle emission, a neutron in the nucleus converts into a proton, an electron (beta particle), and an antineutrino.
Positively charged particle that is also beta particle?
A positron is a positively charged particle that is also a beta particle. It is the antimatter counterpart of the electron, with the same mass but opposite charge. Positrons are commonly produced in beta plus decay processes.
What is the charge for a beta particle?
negative, -1 to be precise since a beta particle is an electron
What are the properties of an Beta particle?
A beta particle is an electron (or positron) with high energy and speed.
What is the charge of a beta particle?
A beta particle has a charge of -1, which means it is negatively charged.
