Radio Activity

Question 1

What is the beta minus equation (what happens )

Answer 1

N->p A proton is added so the electron has it ( e ^0, -1) hint elector -1 = minus

1 1 0
N = P + E
0 1 -1

Question 2

Alpha equation (what happens)

Answer 2

4
Helium proton H
2

236 232 4
U = TH + H
92 90 2

Question 3

What equation is beta plus (what happens)

Answer 3

Proton -> neutron hint positron +1 -> plus

1 1 0
P = N + E
1 0 +1

Question 4

What equation is gamma rays (what happens)

Answer 4

Nothing happens to numbers -> produces a gamma ray

235 235 0
U = TH + Y (other way )
92 92 0

Question 5

What are alpha particles stopped by

Answer 5

Skin
Paper

Question 6

Answer 6

Yes
Only Inside you

Question 7
