The order from the weakest to the most energetic correct order of radio actives rays is ,

Alpha < beta < Gamma .

Hence option (B) is correct.

•Alpha rays are weak and Gamma rays are strong

• Alpha rays are weak because they are very highly ionizing.

•Gamma rays are strong because they have no electric charge and no interaction with matter.
