Hi!
<u>The correct options would be: </u>
is an electron
is emitted from nucleus
has a -1 charge
Explanation:
A beta particle is a result of a neutron (a neutral particle) changing into two particles of opposite charges - a high energy electron (with a negative charge -1) and a positron (with a positive charge +1). Neutrons are present in the nucleus of an atom, and thus the beta particles are said to be emitted from the nucleus. They do have a charge, not zero, but it is not +2 and can only be either -1 or +1. This form of radiation is not electromagnetic energy because beta particles are massless, and do not travel at the speed of light (both being characteristics of electromagnetic radiation). Beta particles are not pure forms of energy.
Hope this helps.
Potential energy can be calculated by the formula Pe=mgh. Plug in your values:
Pe=mgh
Pe=(6 kg)(9.8m/s^2)(100 m)
Pe=5880 kg x m^2/s^2, or 5880 Joules
