Which two types of radiation will pass through a sheet of card?
Gamma radiation
Which of the following is not a component of the radiation emitted by a radioactive sample a.alpha radiation b.delta radiation c.gamma radiation d.beta radiation?
Radioactive substances can emit alpha particles, gamma radiation (gamma rays) and beta radiation (beta particles). What they do not emit is delta radiation.It causes transmutation.It has a mass of 4 amus.
What type of radiation emitted by radioactive nuclei is negatively charged?
A Beta- particle is an electron, which has negative charge.Here are some other types: Alpha is a helium nucleus, which is 2 protons and 2 neutrons (having positive charge). Positron is the antiparticle to electron. Positrons have positive charge. Gamma does not have charge. Neutrons do not have charge. Neutrinos do not have charge.
Disintegration of a nucleus with the emission of an electron is known as what type of decay?
beta
Technetium-99m emits only gamma radiation why would this type of radiation be used in diagnostic imaging rather than an isotope that also emits beta or alpha radiation?
Because alpha and beta aren't strong enough to penetrate the skin or something
Which form of radiation is the same as an electron?
Beta minus radiation is a stream of electrons.
What is an electron called when it is being released during beta decay?
It is in beta minus decay that we see an electron appear to leave the nucleus of an atom. The electron is called a beta minus particle, or we might term that electron beta minus radiation.
What type of radiation is uncharged?
No, beta radiation is not uncharged. Beta radiation is the result of beta decay, and there are two kinds of beta decay. In one type, beta minus decay, an electron is ejected from an atomic nucleus. The electron is negatively charged. In the other type, beta plus decay, an positron, which is an anti-electron (antimatter), is ejected from the nucleus. The positron is positively charged. Beta radiation is either negatively charged electrons or positively charged positrons (anti-electrons). Use the link below to the related question here at WikiAnswers. It is "What is beta decay?" and it is already answered.
Radiation consisting of a single electron?
beta radiation!
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.
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.
Does beta have a helium nucleus?
Beta radiation does not have a helium nucleus.Alpha radiation, however, does have a helium nucleus.
How can beta plus and beta minus decay processes be understood at the level of quarks?
Both Beta plus (positrons) and beta minus (electrons) are elementary particles the same as quarks.
Why is beta radiation used to measure beta radiation?
Because its attenuation is proportional to thickness being penetrated
Is beta radiation a type of nuclear radiation?
Yes
What type of radiation is composed of electrons?
Beta radiation
