प्रश्न
What are α-and β-radiations?
Advertisements
उत्तर
α radiations are positively charged particles with charge + 2e and mass 4mp where e is electronic charge (i.e., charge on a proton) and mp is the mass of a proton.
β radiations are negatively charged particles (i.e., electrons) with charge – e and mass 1/1836 times the mass of a proton.
γ-radiation are electromagnetic waves of wavelength in the range 0.001 Å.
