Why alpha ray form along curved then beta ray?
Alpha and beta particles only travel along curved paths when they are affected by a magnetic field. This is because they are charged particles, and so feel a force perpendicular to the direction of the field and the direction they are travelling in, described by this equation.F=q(vxB)where q is the charge on the particle, v is the particles velocity, and B is the magnetic field strength.The charge on an alpha particle is twice that on a beta particle, and consequently the force on it is twice as big so it moves along a more steeply curved path.
Why did the path of only some alpha particles deviate?
nucleus of the atom has positive charge.alpha particles are also positively charged.like charges repel each other.so alpha particles passing near the nucleus are repelled and deviated from the normal path
If a net force acts at an angle to the direction an object is moving will the object follow a curved path?
a n1qqa path
Why is there no set of path that scientific inquiry must follow?
you actully cant ansere it
Is a short circuit the easiest path for electricity to follow?
yes short circuit is easiest path for current to flow because it has low resistence.
Why does the path of the beta particles bend more than the path of the alpha particles?
Beta particles (electrons) are less massive than alpha particles (Helium-4 nuclei), by a factor of approximately 8000.
What is the ionising power of alpha?
alpha particle is the heaviest(compared to gama and beta particle).....it has got haish positive charge and moves with a speed lower compared to beta and gama particle and therefore it ionizies the particles around it as it moves in its path
Why the alpha particles are never injected for medical diagnosis?
Firstly, alpha rays are easily stopped by paper, hence imagine how easily they would be absorbed in the body! Alpha radiation does not have a long 'mean free path' (search it up :)) and hence looses its energy quickly. Hence because they area easily absorbed, then it means that this big dose of alpha radiation is beign stored in a small volume of the body's material.
What are the medical hazards of breathing alpha radiation?
Quite a few unfortunately. Being relatively heavy and positively charged, alpha particles in alpha radiation tend to have a very short mean free path, and quickly lose kinetic energy within a short distance of their source. This results in several MeV being deposited in a relatively small volume of material. This increases the chance of cellular damage in cases of internal contamination. In general, external alpha radiation is not harmful since alpha particles are effectively shielded by a few centimeters of air, a piece of paper, or the thin layer of dead skin cells. Even touching an alpha source is usually not harmful, though many alpha sources also are accompanied by beta-emitting radio daughters, and alpha emission is also accompanied by gamma photon emission. If substances emitting alpha particles are ingested, inhaled, injected or introduced through the skin, then it could result in a measurable dose. The Relative Biological Effectiveness (RBE) is a measure of the fact that alpha radiation is more effective at causing certain biological effects, notably either cancer or cell-death, compared to photon or beta radiation, for equivalent radiation exposure. This is generally attributable to the high Linear Energy Transfer (LET), which is about one ionization of a chemical bond for every Angstrom of travel by the alpha particle. The RBE has been set at the value of 20 for alpha radiation by various government regulations. The RBE is set at 10 for neutron irradiation, and at 1 for beta and ionizing photon radiation. However, another component of alpha radiation is the recoil of the parent nucleus, due to the conservation of momentum requiring the parent nucleus to recoil, much like the 'kick' of a rifle butt when a bullet goes in the opposite direction. This gives a significant amount of energy to the recoil nucleus, which also causes ionizaton damage. The total energy of the recoil nucleus is readily calculable, and is roughly the weight of the alpha (4 amu) divided by the weight of the parent (typically about 200 amu) times the total energy of the alpha. By some estimates, this might account for most of the internal radiation damage, as the recoil nuclei are typically heavy metals which preferentially collect on the chromosomes. In some studies, this has resulted in a RBE approaching 1,000 instead of the value used in governmental regulations.
In Megaman white 3 how do you destroy the security cubes in the undernet?
All the WWW navis you defeat do not die. Instead, they live on as ghost data in specific dead ends in the net. These are the more powerful, alpha versions of the navis, and defeating them grants you their chips. They will then roam the net in their even more powerful beta forms in random battles. Defeating them will grant you access to their security cube (and more chips). Flashman alpha is right outside the ACDC Square in the purple dead end, while his beta roams ACDC 2; Beastman alpha is in the dead end in the lower level of Sci-Lab 1, and his beta relocates to Lan's doghouse (Sneakrun is a necessity); Bubbleman alpha is on a press-path dead end near the Bugfrag trader in Yoka 1 (lower level), while his beta moves to Beach 1 (low health a requirement); Desertman alpha is in the square on the right in Beach 1, on the other side of the arrow path from the hospital security cube, while his beta lives in the Ura Inn tv; Plantman alpha is in a dead-end in Undernet 4, while his beta inhabits HospitalComp 3 (or 4); Flamman alpha is in a dead-end in Undernet 5, while his beta hangs out around the water heater in Yoka 1 (use Oilbody); Drillman alpha is in a dead-end in Undernet 6, and his beta lives in HadesNet. Defeating the alpha Navis with any busting level will get their basic chip, but they can only be fought once. The beta Navis will yield zennys, more powerful chips (up to V4, with Team style), and can be fought multiple times.
Can high velocity neutrons path be affected by radiation or magnetism?
Neutron's path is not affected by radiation or magnetism.

What is stronger beta radiation or gamma radiation?
If you are asking about which radiation is the most penetrating, gamma rays are the "strongest" in that regard.Gamma rays are electromagnetic radiation of the highest possible energy (frequency). It has a higher frequency (shorter wavelength) than even X-rays. It has the greatest ability to penetrate materials. A gamma ray can go through a hundred people with ease.It takes a very large mass to be effective in stopping gamma radiation. Any material can be used as shielding but, in general, the more mass, the better. It takes a lot more water than lead to stop gamma rays because water is much less dense than lead, but water is cheaper. Stone, concrete, or soil is very cost effective.Any of these radiation may be emitted from the nucleus of an atom during radioactive decay (depending on the type of decay). They all ionize material as it slows them down. Both alpha and beta radiation are particulate radiation, as they are composed of particles.Alpha particles are helium-4 nuclei, composed of two protons and two neutrons. These don't travel very far in air, and a sheet of paper will stop them.A Beta particle is a high energy electron or positron. These have a modest ability to penetrate, but a sheet of aluminum foil will stop them.
What is the new element formed when Pb-210 undergoes alpha decay?
An alpha particle is a helium-4 nucleus. Look up the number of the element, and subtract two from that (since helium has 2 protons). As for the number, subtract 210 - 4 (since the alpha particle has an atomic mass of 4).
Was Zaroff unable to follow the tricky path that Rainsford left in the woods?
false, he could follow the path
What is a path that a stream follow?
The path that a stream follows is a channel.
Why is there no set path that a set path that a scientific inquiry must follow?
It is because you follow wherever the evidence leads you
