What else can I help you with?
What is the particle that is same as helium nucleus out of alpha and beta and gamma?
The particle that is the same as a helium nucleus is an alpha particle. It consists of two protons and two neutrons bound together. Beta particles are high-energy electrons or positrons, while gamma rays are electromagnetic radiation.
Which naturally occurring radioactive particle is the largest?
Alpha particles are the same size as a helium nucleus and are made up of 2 protons and two neutrons. They have no electrons so an alpha particle has a +2 charge
Positively charged particle consisting of 2 protons and 2 neutrons which is given off by a radioactive substance is called what?
A radiation particle consisting of two protons and two neutrons is called an Alpha Particle. Alpha Particles have the same structure as a Helium nucleus. There are three forms of radiation, Alpha (Helium nucleus), Beta (a lone electron) and Gamma (an Electromagnetic wave).
What is an alpha particle equivilent to?
An alpha particle is equivalent to a helium-4 nucleus, or a helium-4 ion. A difference is that an alpha particle has a certain amount of energy associated with it, so it can said to be fast or hot. The energy is measured in thousands or millions of electron volts (keV or MeV).
Which atoms are in an alpha particle?
An alpha particle is two protons and two neutrons, this is the same as a helium nucleus.
What is released from the nucleus during gamma decay?
Alpha decay means that an alpha particle (helium-4 nucleus) is emitted.Alpha decay means that an alpha particle (helium-4 nucleus) is emitted.Alpha decay means that an alpha particle (helium-4 nucleus) is emitted.Alpha decay means that an alpha particle (helium-4 nucleus) is emitted.
An alpha particle has the same structure as which nucleus?
The radioactive alpha particle has the same structure as the atomic nucleus of helium. They are usually formed and emitted during alpha decay.
How fast do alpha particles travel?
That depends on what energy the interaction particle was at. For example if say you had a gamma at 14MeV and you got an alpha of 2MeV, now you up the energy of the gamma to 15MeV for the same reaction the alpha would have a kinetic energy (velocity) of about 3MeV. -Regards
What element has the same number of protons and neutrons in its nucleus as an alpha particle?
An alpha particle has 2 protons and 2 neutrons. That is the same as a helium nucleus.
Define alpha particle?
An alpha particle is the same as a helium-4 nucleus: 2 protons and 2 neutrons, all together.
How massive is a alpha particle?
an alpha particle is made of two protons and 2 neutrons. its basically the same as the nucleus of a helium atom
Does an alpha particle and beta particle has the same speed in a magnetic field?
Alpha particles with the same energy as beta particles have much less speed, magnetic field or no.
