Radiation that is similar to x-rays and is not composed of particles?
gamma radiation
Does beta radiation results in the emission of electrons?
In beta radiation, an emission of electrons can occur due to beta decay. A neutron can disintegrate into protons and 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.
Shifting of electrons in an atom do what?
Bonds, radiation...
What is electromagnet composed of?
Electromagnetic radiation is composed of electrons and photons. Since electromagnetic radiation can display wave as well as particle properties, the manner in which the radiation is presenting itself, and the way it is measured, will define which component or what ratio the components are present.
Is beta consisted by two protons and neutrons?
No, beta radiation is composed of electrons or positrons. An alpha particle is two protons and to neutrons.
Is an electron beam a beam of light?
noLight is an electromagnetic radiation that is composed of photons.No.
Atom are composed of neutrons and electrons?
atoms are composed of protons, electrons and neutrons..
Radiation that is similar to x-rays and is not composed of particles?
gamma radiation
Does beta radiation results in the emission of electrons?
In beta radiation, an emission of electrons can occur due to beta decay. A neutron can disintegrate into protons and electrons.
What is radioactivly?
It is the decaying or breaking down of an atom (mostly unstable isotopes of heavy elements), which causes it to give off radiation, (alpha, beta, gamma). Alpha, is the weakest radiation and is composed of 2 protons and 2 neutrons, and are stopped by a sheet of paper. Beta, is composed of electrons, and it travels over half the speed of light and stopped by a thin sheet of aluminum. Gamma radiation, the strongest, travels at the speed of light (c) and is composed of electromagnetic waves. it can be stopped by thick lead
What is electormagnetic radiation composed of?
Every electromagnetic radiation is composed of two components:an electric wave and a magnetic component.They both are perpendicular to each other.
What type of radiation does radium give off?
Radium emits alpha, beta, and gamma radiation. Alpha radiation is fully ionized helium nuclei. Beta radiation is high energy electrons. Gamma radiation is very high energy electromagnetic radiation. All of these can do significant damage to living things.
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.
Is sunlight just like radiation?
Yes sunlight is composed of ultraviolet rays which are electromagnetic radiation
