Paper or foil absorbs beta ratation. The thicker it is the less radiation passes through. A detector senses how much radiation passes through and changes the production setting.

What can beta radiation absorb?
It doesn't absorb clever. It penetrates, and it can penetrate paper, smoke, a layer of skin and thin aluminium.
Which form of radiation is the same as an electron?
Beta minus radiation is a stream of electrons.
What radiation can be stopped by a piece of metal foil?
The radiation of an electron is Radiolectonoil. -Professor Lyle
What would you need to protect yourself from beta radiation?
Normal clothing will protect you from typical energy beta radiation.
Does white plastic absorb or transmit solar radiation?
White anything will REFLECT radiation, it will not transmit or absorb.
What can beta radiation absorb?
It doesn't absorb clever. It penetrates, and it can penetrate paper, smoke, a layer of skin and thin aluminium.
Radiation consisting of a single electron?
beta radiation!
Which form of radiation is the same as an electron?
Beta minus radiation is a stream of electrons.
Is Alpha Beta or gamma made from electrons?
Beta radiation is made from electrons (or positrons for inverse beta radiation). Alpha radiation is a helium nucleus, and gamma radiation is a high energy electromagnetic ray.
Does beta radiation have a helium nuleus?
A stream of helium nuclei is alpha radiation. Beta radiation is a stream of electrons.
Does beta have a helium nucleus?
Beta radiation does not have a helium nucleus.Alpha radiation, however, does have a helium nucleus.
Which layer of the atmosphere does not absorb solar radiation?
Troposphere does not absorb solar radiation. All other layers do not absorb.
Why is beta radiation used to measure beta radiation?
Because its attenuation is proportional to thickness being penetrated
Is beta radiation a type of nuclear radiation?
Yes
What type of radiation is composed of electrons?
Beta radiation
What radiation can be stopped by a piece of metal foil?
The radiation of an electron is Radiolectonoil. -Professor Lyle
What are Two ways gases can affect radiation?
Gases absorb radiation and some is absorbed in the atmosphere :)
