What effect of nuclear radiation or weapons can you protect yourself from by wearing your protective clothing and mask?
alpha or beta radiation
Radiation consisting of a single electron?
beta radiation!
Which form of radiation is the same as an electron?
Beta minus radiation is a stream of electrons.
Which effect of nuclear radation can you protect yourself from if you wear your protective clothing and mask?
alpha and beta radiation
Is Alpha Beta or gamma made from electrons?
Beta radiation is made from electrons (or positrons for inverse beta radiation). Alpha radiation is a helium nucleus, and gamma radiation is a high energy electromagnetic ray.
Does beta radiation have a helium nuleus?
A stream of helium nuclei is alpha radiation. Beta radiation is a stream of electrons.
Beta radiation can treat skin cancer not cancers inside the body?
Beta particles are not as penetrative as gama rays and can be stopped by the skin. Another reason is because of the high risk and danger involve if one is to expose the internal body to the beta radiation. This is due to the high ionizing effect of beta radiation that can easily mutate a DNA strand making it difficult to control it for uses in the body.
Does beta have a helium nucleus?
Beta radiation does not have a helium nucleus.Alpha radiation, however, does have a helium nucleus.
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
What radiation can be stopped by a piece of metal foil?
The radiation of an electron is Radiolectonoil. -Professor Lyle
