The beta particle has a nuclear charge of 1.

Further Explanation:

Radioactive decay is a reaction by which unstable nucleus of an atom loss energy by emitting radiation and convert into a stable nucleus.

Three types of particle are :

• Alpha particle

• Beta particle

• Gamma particle

Alpha decay is a nuclear process in which alpha particles are emitted. In beta decay, a beta particle is emitted from the nucleus.

Beta-decay is two types:

• β-  decay

• β+ decay

In β- decay, nucleus have a high level of the neutrons which then converted into proton, electron and electron neutrino.

In β+ decay, the nucleus has a high level of protons which then converted into a neutron, positron, and an electron neutrino.

β-particle is a high ionizing particle which is harmful to living tissue.

Application of β-particle are;

• To treat human disease.

• To check quality control of the item.

Svetach [21]

Water has a characteristically high specific heat, making it an important vector (or mechanism) for redistributing heat around the globe.

Specific heat can be defined as the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of a substance by one degree Celsius. The units of specific heat are usually calories or joules per gram per degree Celsius.

The specific heat of water is 1 calorie (or 4.186 joules) per gram per degree Celsius. The incoming radiation from the sun is responsible for warming up the Earth. Water in particular, has a high heat capacity at 4.18 J/g*C, which indicates that more heat is needed to warm a gram of water. This is the reason that throughout a warm summer day, the water in the ocean does not experience a significant change.

Study this image of space. A cloud of gas and dust. What object is shown in this image? a nebula a red giant a supernova a neutr
zubka84 [21]

Answer: The image to be studied is missing from the question,so I attached it to my answer,please click on the attachment provided to view the image being studied.

The correct answer to the question is option A.

NEBULA

The object shown in the image is known as a nebula.

Explanation: A nebula is found in interstellar space,it has a form of a giant cloud of dust. When some stars goes into dying process,they explode throwing out gas and dust which forms a nebula.(a supernova remnants nebulae).

Some nebulae(singular form of nebula) are also found where new stars are being formed.

Nebula are the basic building blocks of the universe,they are made up 90% hydrogen,10% helium and other heavier elements in trace amounts from which stars and other solar systems are made.

Nebula exist in 5 distinct types namely;

Emission nebulae, Reflection nebulae,Dark nebulae, Planetary Nebulae and supernova remnants Nebulae.
