A subsection of Physics, 0625, through 5. Nuclear physics
Listing 10 of 102 questions
Three types of radioactive decay are by the emission of α - radiation, β - radiation, γ - radiation. State which of the three types of emission has the greatest speed. A nucleus of americium-241 decays to become a nucleus of neptunium-237 by the emission of one particle. The equation below describes the change. The symbol A Z X represents the particle emitted. 95Am 93 Np + A Z X State the name given to each of the numbers A and Z. A is the number. Z is the number. Determine the values of A and Z. A = Z = State the name of the particle emitted.
