Answer : The correct option is, gamma rays only

Explanation :

Penetration power : It is defined as the movement of particles or rays through an object. As more the energy of a particle, more will be the penetrating power.

The increasing order of the penetration power of alpha rays, beta rays, and gamma rays will be,

Alpha rays < Beta rays <  Gamma rays

The penetrating power of the given rays varies greatly.

The alpha particles can be restricted by a few pieces of paper.

The beta particles can be pass through the paper but can not pass by the aluminum foil.

The blocking of gamma rays are the most difficult. It can be blocked by concrete, lead, or other heavy shielding.

Hence, the radiation can pass through the sheet of metal and hit the target is, gamma rays only

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

The physical states that are represented by each graph region are the liquid and the solid, the highest temperature is the liquid and as it freezes it becomes a solid. The particles change because when it's a liquid, it isn't that compact it's just spreading smootly but as it freezes the atoms start to stick together and become compact.

Hope that made sense!
