Radium 226 has decays by Alpha emmision to produce Radon-222. Sometimes a gamma ray is emmited at the same time and lower energy alpha is emitted the product is same in both cases. Gamma emmision by itself causes no change to the atom the nucleus just ends up with a lower energy.
What else can I help you with?
What is the nuclear decay equation for T99m?
T99 is Technetion 99 has a Decay rate of 6h
What nuclear decay have no mass and no charge?
Gamma decay involves the emission of a gamma ray, which is a high-energy photon with no charge and no mass.
What type of ray is gamma ray commonly known as?
well none, its either gamma ray or gamma radiation, it has the same wavelength as an x-ray but higher energy level.
What radioactive emissions are not a particle Neutron Alpha Proton Beta Gamma Ray?
Gamma Ray
What one of these is not particle proton neutron alpha gamma ray or a beta particle?
The gamma ray is not a particle but is just an EM wave that transmits energy.
If cobalt-60 emits a gamma ray what is the product?
When cobalt-60 emits a gamma ray, it remains as cobalt-60. The emission of a gamma ray does not change the identity of the cobalt-60 isotope.
Is a gamma-ray burst more powerful than a pulsar?
A gamma ray burster emits an amount of gamma ray energy in one pulse roughly equal all EM radiation energy of a galaxy in a year. So yes.
How do the mass number and charge of a nucleus change when it emits a gamma ray?
Neither changes. A gamma ray is just energy, and the nucleus simply transitions to a lower energy state.
How about when the same nucleus emits a gamma ray photons?
When a nucleus emits a gamma ray photon, it releases high-energy electromagnetic radiation. This process is known as gamma decay, and it typically occurs after alpha or beta decay has taken place. Gamma rays have no mass or charge and are highly penetrating, which makes them useful in various fields such as medicine, industry, and research.
What effect does losing a gamma ray have on the nucleus?
Losing a gamma ray does not change the number of protons or neutrons in the nucleus, so the nucleus remains the same element. However, the nucleus may be left in an excited state after emitting a gamma ray, and it typically returns to its ground state quickly by emitting the gamma ray.
What is a gamma ray machine used for?
A gamma ray machine is primarily used for industrial applications such as radiography, material analysis, and quality control. It emits gamma rays to penetrate materials and provide detailed imaging for detecting flaws in metal components, inspecting welds, and ensuring product quality in manufacturing processes.
Flashlight emits what type of ray?
A flashlight emits visible light rays, which are a form of electromagnetic radiation that our eyes can detect. It does not emit any other type of ray, such as X-rays or gamma rays.
Is a Mobile Gamma Ray System radiation emitting?
Yes, a Mobile Gamma Ray System emits gamma radiation for various applications such as industrial radiography, medical imaging, and scientific research. Precautions and safety measures must be followed to minimize exposure to radiation.
When a radioactive nucleus gives off a gamma ray it's atomic number increases by?
Emission of a gamma ray does not change the atomic number of the atom. A gamma ray is a photon, and has no mass. The atom's mass is reduced by the conversion of a tiny amount of mass into the energy of the gamma ray. This changes neither the number of protons nor the number of neutrons. It is done by rearranging the nucleons, changing the state of excitation of the nucleus. An example is when 99mTc emits a gamma ray and changes to 99Tc.
What is the nuclear decay equation for T99m?
T99 is Technetion 99 has a Decay rate of 6h
Which ray is the strongest?
Gamma Ray
Why do we use gamma ray machine?
We use a gamma ray machine to find out where the gamma rays are and where they are pointed to. We also use these machines to study a gamma ray.
