What can alpha particles can pass through?
Alpha particles can pass through very few substances. It can travel in air but has a range of only a few centimetres.
What are the components of natural radiation in order from least to most penetrating?
Alpha particles, which consist of two protons and two neutrons; Beta particles, which consist of one electron; Gamma rays, which is the highest frequency of electromagnetic radiation, has no mass, and is not made up of any subatomic particles. Alpha particles con be stopped by a mere piece of paper; Beta particles can pass through paper but can be stopped by aluminum foil; Gamma rays can pass through paper and aluminum foil, and can only be stopped by lead or concrete.
What happened to the alpha particles as they hit the gold foil?
They stop.
Why do sounds travel quickly through solids and liquids but not gases?
because the particles are closer together so the vibrations are able to pass through them faster where as in gasses the particles are very spaced out so it takes longer to pass through the gas
Why the alpha particles pass through the foil unaffected?
its in your 9th std science book guide
What type of particles can pass through concrete?
gamma
What invisible yet can pass through concrete walls?
radio and tv beams can pass through concrete as x-rays pass through the body
Can gama pass through concrete?

Can oxygen and water pass through concrete?
yes
What is the process by which tiny particles can pass through the cell membrane?
Small particles can pass through the cell membrane by simple diffusion. If the particles are water, the process is given a special name: osmosis.
Can alpha particles pass through the human body?
No
Can Radon gas pass through a concrete slab?

What are characteristics of electric field?
Nano particles pass through
Why does alpha pass through some materials and not others?
Alpha particles can pass through very few materials. The spacing between nuclei of the material would have to be enormous for an alpha particle to pass through. The passage of alpha particles simply depends on the density of the material.
starch particles spread pass through a paper membrane?
Yes
