The answer for the worksheet you are most likely doing; is I. Solid.
They don't, or at least, the effect is negligible. Alpha particles can be deflected with a sheet of paper.
Alpha. Beta particles are blocked by a few mm of aluminum and gamma by a few cm of lead. Alpha. Beta particles are blocked by a few mm of aluminum and gamma by a few cm of lead.
A sheet of notebook paper will stop alpha particles. Depending on their energy, alpha particles, which are helium-4 nuclei (two protons and two neutrons), will only travel a few feet in air. Use the link below to learn more.
Alpha particles are the least penetrating of the primary particles because they have the most mass and the most charge. They can be stopped with only a few inches of air, or even by a sheet of paper.
Both Beta and alpha particles can be blocked by a block of lead. Alpha particles can even be blocked by a sheet of paper, and beta particles can be blocked by a thin aluminium plate.
Beta particles are not stopped by a paper sheet.
They don't, or at least, the effect is negligible. Alpha particles can be deflected with a sheet of paper.
Alpha particles ARE not a threat to humans. They can be deflected by nothing more than a sheet of paper.

A sheet of paper simply isn't shiny or smooth enough. It may seem quite smooth, but actually the particles are quite rougher than the particles of a mirror, for example. Obviously, it isn't a very shiny material.

A few millimetres of lead.
Alpha particles are the least penetrating of the primary particles because they have the most mass and the most charge. They can be stopped with only a few inches of air, or even by a sheet of paper.
