Question

Which of the following is emitted from the nucleus?

alpha particle
beta particle
gamma Ray
photoelectron

Answer 1

Gamma Ray

Step-by-step explanation:

Gamma Ray is produced furring nuclear decay which occurs in the nucleus of the atom.

Other radiations are produced from outside the nucleus.

Gamma Ray has the shortest wavelength and the highest penetrating power and ionises matter.

Answer 2

gamma Ray

Step-by-step explanation:

Stable or unstable nucleus will have high energy in form of nuclear energy stored in it.

When this energy exist in the unstable state of the nucleus then in order to attain the stability the nucleus will will go to lower energy state.

This energy change is of higher order due to which energy released is of large order and high frequency electromagnetic waves.

so it is given as

`E_2 - E_1 = h\\u`

since this energy is of higher range so it is given as gamma rays.

so correct answer will be

Gamma Rays
