The frequency of beta radiation can vary depending on the specific beta particle emitted, but typically ranges from about 10^18 to 10^20 Hz. Beta particles are high-energy electrons or positrons that are emitted during certain types of radioactive decay.

What are the forms of radiation?

Alpha, Beta, Neutron, X-ray, Gamma, Neutron radiation, Electromagnetic radiation, Visible light, Infrared, Microwave, Radio waves, Very low frequency (VLF), Extremely low frequency (ELF), Thermal radiation (heat) and Black body radiation.


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.


Radiation consisting of a single electron?

A radiation consisting of a single electron is known as beta radiation. This type of radiation occurs during beta decay when a neutron transforms into a proton, electron, and antineutrino. Beta radiation is commonly emitted by radioactive substances and has the ability to penetrate materials and cause ionization.


Does beta radiation have a helium nuleus?

A stream of helium nuclei is alpha radiation. Beta radiation is a stream of electrons.


Is frequency related to radiation?

yes frequency = 1/radiation


Is beta radiation the heaviest of the three types radiation?

No, beta radiation is not the heaviest of the three types of radiation. Alpha radiation consists of heavier particles (helium nuclei) compared to beta radiation, which consists of fast-moving electrons. Gamma radiation is the most penetrating and has no mass.


What are the types of nuclear radiations?

Alpha, beta, and gamma are the main ones. Alpha is the ejection of alpha particles which are 2 protons plus 2 neutrons, which is a helium nucleus. Beta particles are electrons. Gamma radiation is EM radiation of very high frequency, beyond x-rays.


Which form of radiation is the same as an electron?

Beta minus radiation is a stream of electrons.


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


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.
