● with mass and/or charge
● travels at the speed of light in free space
● originate in the nucleus of an atom
● exs. alpha, beta and neutron particles

A

PARTICULATE RADIATION

32
Q

● some are ionizing others are
non-ionizing radiation
● no mass and/or charge
● radiation in the form of waves but
behaves like a photon(particles)
● travels at the speed of light in free
space.

A

NON-PARTICULATE
RADIATION/ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION

33
Q

A

= c
= 186, 282 miles/second
= 300,000 km/sec
= 3 X 10 8 m/sec
