Beta and gamma rays have lower energy compared to alpha particles. Alpha particles carry the highest energy among these three types of radiation, as they have two protons and two neutrons, making them the most massive and carrying the most kinetic energy. Beta particles are electrons with higher energy than gamma rays, which are electromagnetic radiation with the lowest energy.

What are the relative velocity of alpha beta gamma?

The relative velocity of alpha with respect to beta is the velocity of alpha minus the velocity of beta. The relative velocity of beta with respect to gamma is the velocity of beta minus the velocity of gamma. The relative velocity of alpha with respect to gamma is the velocity of alpha minus the velocity of gamma.


Is alpha and beta decay are almost always accompanied by what?

Alpha and beta decay are often accompanied by the emission of gamma radiation. Gamma radiation is a high-energy form of electromagnetic radiation that helps to stabilize the nucleus after alpha or beta decay.


Why is gamma radiation different from alpha and beta radiation?

Gamma radiation is a type of electromagnetic radiation, whereas alpha and beta radiation are composed of particles. Gamma rays have the shortest wavelength and highest energy, whereas alpha and beta particles are larger and less penetrating. Gamma radiation does not carry an electric charge, while alpha and beta particles do.


Order gamma decay beta decay and alpha deacy form weakest to strongest?

From weakest to strongest decay, the order is: Gamma decay - involves the emission of high-energy photons. Beta decay - involves the emission of beta particles (electrons or positrons). Alpha decay - involves the emission of alpha particles (helium nuclei).


How different alpha and beta radiation from gamma rays?

I'm not sure there are quantifiers for "difference", but "completely" comes close. Alpha and beta radiation is (massive) particle based, gamma rays are electromagnetic radiation ... technically this is a particle (photons), but photons have zero invariant mass. Alpha radiation is a helium nucleus on the run. Beta radiation is an electron on the run. Gamma radiation is a very high energy "light" ray (electromagnetic radiation).

Gamma, as it has the most energy by far.


Is Alpha Beta or gamma made from electrons?

Electrons are not directly involved in the creation of alpha, beta, or gamma radiation. Alpha radiation consists of helium nuclei (2 protons and 2 neutrons), beta radiation is made of electrons (beta-minus) or positrons (beta-plus), and gamma radiation is a high-energy electromagnetic radiation.
