Why the speed of beta rays emitted by the same element are different?

because the control of neucles on different electrons is different and we know that beta rays are infact electrons then we can say that the speed of beta rays emitted by the same element is different


The daughter isotope produced by a beta decay of 234th is?

"Beta decay" is used for two different processes. However, the kind undergone by 234Th produces 234Pa.


What elements emit alpha beta and gamma rays?

Alpha particles are emitted by heavy elements like uranium and radium. Beta particles are emitted by elements like strontium and tritium. Gamma rays are emitted by radioactive decay of unstable nuclei across all elements.


Can beta rays pass through 1cm thick aluminium foil?

No, it cannot. Alpha particles can be stopped using aluminum foil. Beta particles (electrons) posses higher kinetic energy and have smaller cross section. Lead is widely used to stop beta particles as well as gamma particles. Gamma particles are basically high energy photons which are extremely dangerous for alive creatures. Extra precaution must be taken when you are working with such radiation.


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?

The correct order is c) Alpha particle, beta particle, gamma ray. Alpha particles have the greatest mass, followed by beta particles, and then gamma rays which have no mass.

Is there beta rays present in nucleus?

yes beta rays are present in nucleus. these rays are due to negative pi meson


What rays have more energy beta or gamma rays?

Gamma rays have more energy than beta rays. Gamma rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation with the highest energy in the electromagnetic spectrum, while beta rays are high-energy, high-speed electrons or positrons.


Are gamma rays the same size as beta rays?

no


What are beta rays also called?

Beta rays are also called beta particles. They are high-speed electrons or positrons emitted by a radioactive nucleus during beta decay.


What is one unique fact about beta particales?

Beta particles are electrons, generally emitted by the cathode of a glow discharge system. When beta particles was discovered the atomic model was not known and the new "rays" were called with progressive names alfa rays, beta rays, gamma rays and so on.


Did any rays are identical to beta rays?

I am rayray girlfriend


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.


Are thegamma and alfa rays electromagnetic radiation?

The gamma rays are. The alpha and beta "rays" are not.


What are the 4 radioactive rays produced?

You think probable to beta rays, gamma rays, alpha rays.


What type of x rays produce beta rays?

X-rays are not capable of producing beta rays. Beta rays are a form of ionizing radiation emitted by certain types of radioactive nuclei. X-rays are electromagnetic radiation produced through processes like electron transitions in atoms or by high-energy electron collisions.


Why beta rays get negative?

Beta rays do not have a negative charge. Beta particles (electrons or positrons) emitted during beta decay can have a negative or positive charge, depending on whether it is an electron or a positron. The negative charge is carried by the electron beta particle.
