Answer:

Gamma rays

Explanation:

The penetrating power of gamma rays is maximum as compared to beta and alpha rays. Gamma rays are nothing but the photons i.e. the packets of energy. Their energy range lies from kilo electron volts to 8 mega electron volts. It is emitted during the decay of many radioactive isotopes, such as U-238 and I-131. A large amount of energy is produced in decay of uranium 238.

Hence, the correct option is " gamma rays ".

A physics major is cooking breakfast when he notices that the frictional force between
White raven [17]
Let's list the given information. The frictional force, denoted as Ff, is equal to 0.200 N. We have to find the normal force, denoted as Fn. The relationship between Ff and Fn is written as:

Ff = μFn
where μ is the coefficient of friction

If there is no given data for μ, we can't solve this problem. Suppose μ = 0.5, then the normal force would be:
Fn = Ff/μ = 0.2/0.5 = 0.4 N
