The particles released during alpha decay are called alpha particles. Alpha particles have greater mass and charge than other emitted particles.
- Radioactive emissions are the transfer of energy through the flow of particles or waves in a medium
- There are 3 types of radioactive emissions which are alpha, beta and gamma
- In alpha radiation, the nucleus emits an alpha particle which is equivalent to a helium nucleus
- In beta radiation, an electron is emitted to convert a neutron to a proton
- In gamma radiation, the nucleus just loses energy
Since alpha particles have more mass and charge, they are more ionising and lose more energy at a faster rate and can be blocked easily.

Answer:
The answer is diffraction
Explanation:
I just took the test and diffraction is what is being shown in the example
Answer:
Explanation:
Displacement involves direction and distance. In this case, the deer has walked a distance of 17 + 12 = 29m but because of the South-then-North direction, the net displacement is only 17-12 = 5m.
So the answer is A) 5.0 m, 29.0 m
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Most vehicle's cooling system contain a coolant that flows through certain passages in the engine, as the coolant moves through those passages it absorb heat from moving engine parts and the explosion of gasoline in the cylinders. the coolant is then stored back in a radiator which is responsible for transferring the heat from the coolant to the environment(air).
Answer:
6000 N
Explanation:
Newton's third law states that:
"When an object A exerts a force (called action) on an object B, then object B exerts an equal and opposite force (called reaction) on object A"
In this problem, we can identify:
- The truck as object A
- The car as object B
This means that if the force exerted by the truck on the car (the action) is 6000 N, then the force exerted by the car on the truck (the reaction) must also have equal magnitude, 6000 N, and be in the opposite direction.
