In quantum matter, all things in the world are made up of even smaller particles than the atom. These are called the subatomic particles: neutron, proton and electron. A beta particle is simply an electron. It is an electromagnetic particle or wave. Electromagnetic particles are high-energy particles that are emitted by the atom during radioactive decay. Since it is an electron, its charge must be -1 and it must come from outside the nucleus of the atom. From the choices, the answers would be:
<span>is electromagnetic energy
</span><span>has a -1 charge</span>
So they can tell what exact species it is.
Answer:
Speed of light
Explanation:
The value 3.0 x 10⁸m/s is taken as the speed of light.
It is a constant.
- It implies that light travels a distance of 3 x 10⁸ in just one second.
- This value is for the speed of light in a vacuum when there are not particles obstructing its movement.
- The speed of electromagnetic radiations in free space is also taken as the speed of light.
