Nuclear radiation ranked from the greatest mass to the least mass is a- Xray gamma ray beta particle b- Xray beta particle gamma ray c- Alpha particle beta particle gamma ray d Beta alpha gamma?
aplha, beta, gamma
How do the mass and size of an alpha particle compare with mass and size of beta particle?
The mass and size of an alpha particle compare with the masa and size of beta particle in the sense that the alpha particle is significantly larger in both size and mass that the beta and gamma particles. This is why it is called the alpha particle.
Which has the largest mass alpha particle gamma ray positron or beta particle?
The alpha particle is much more massive than a beta particle. A beta particle is an electron, which has very little mass. An alpha particle is a helium nucleus, and consists of two protons and two neutrons.
What represents a beta particle?
0/-1 e
Which particle is emitted when an atom OF 85Kr spontaneously decays?
a beta particle
A beta particle is actually a what?
it is an electron
The beta particle is actually?
an electron
What do most scientists think a beta particle actually is?
A beta particle can be an electron, or a positron (anti-electron).
Are X-rays similar to beta rays?
Though both are forms of ionizing radiation, an X-ray is a form of electromagnetic radiation, while a beta ray is actually a beta particle. The beta particle is a form of particulate radiation, and the beta particle could be either an electron or a positron.
What is the strength of a beta particle?
The strength of a beta particle is its ability to cross the absorber to reach the detector.Now the strength of a beta particle depends upon the energy of the beta particle and thickness of the absorber.
Positively charged particle that is also beta particle?
A positively charged particle that is also a beta particle is a Positron.
What is the difference between a beta plus particle and a beta minus particle?
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.
What is the charge for a beta particle?
negative, -1 to be precise since a beta particle is an electron
What are the properties of an Beta particle?
A beta particle is an electron (or positron) with high energy and speed.
What is beta perticle?
The beta particle is an electron.
When is the decay particle beta?
A beta particle is either an electron, or a positron (aka "anti-electron").
How many nucleons does a beta particle have?
None. A beta particle consists of a single electrons or positron.
