neutral charge. this is because a beta decay gains a proton and loses a neutron.
the same as a slow electron or stationary electron
It's charge is minus one.
A beta particle is essentially an electron. Electrons have a negative charge and as such, they are attracted to positively charged objects and fields.
A beta particle has an electric charge of -1 because beta particles are both lightweight and fast moving, they have a greater penetrating power than alpha particles.
A beta particle is an electron, and electrons are negative. You're probably thinking of a positron, which has the same mass as an electron but the opposite charge.
A Beta- particle is an electron, which has negative charge.Here are some other types: Alpha is a helium nucleus, which is 2 protons and 2 neutrons (having positive charge). Positron is the antiparticle to electron. Positrons have positive charge. Gamma does not have charge. Neutrons do not have charge. Neutrinos do not have charge.
aplha, beta, gamma
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.
Beta particle electrons (as opposed to Beta particle positrons which have + charge)
An alpha particle has a charge of +2 (elementary charges). A beta particle has a charge of -1 (electron) or +1 (positron).An alpha particle has a charge of +2 (elementary charges). A beta particle has a charge of -1 (electron) or +1 (positron).An alpha particle has a charge of +2 (elementary charges). A beta particle has a charge of -1 (electron) or +1 (positron).An alpha particle has a charge of +2 (elementary charges). A beta particle has a charge of -1 (electron) or +1 (positron).
negative, -1 to be precise since a beta particle is an electron
no its charge is -1
From Physics Forums The alpha particle has a 2+ charge, beta has 1- charge, and the gamma is neutral (no charge). The beta particle could also have a 1+ charge if it undergoes positron emission [a proton turns into a neutron and a positron (the "anti-electron")]
Neutrons are particles of no charge. Electrons have negative charge.
no alpha particle is the one that consist of particle with a 2+ charge
Beta Particles have a negative charge,In Beta decay a neutron changes into a proton and a beta particle, an electron.
No. Beta- particles, electrons, have a charge of -1, and beta+ particles, positrons, have a charge of +1.The alpha particle has a charge of +2.
A beta particle is an electron, and electrons are negative. You're probably thinking of a positron, which has the same mass as an electron but the opposite charge.
A alpha particle is a helium-4, written 24He, nucleus, and it is composed of a pair of protons and a pair of neutrons fused together. It's charge is +2. A beta particle could be either a beta + particle, which is a positron, or a beta - particle, which is an electron. The electron (beta -) has a charge of -1, and the positron (beta +) has a charge of +1. In summary, the alpha is +2, the beta minus is -1, and the beta plus is +1.
