Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Beta radiations:
mass 1/200 , charge -1, medium penetration
Beta radiations are result from the beta decay in which electron is ejected.
The mass of beta particle is smaller than the alpha particles.
They can travel in air in few meter distance.
These radiations can penetrate into the human skin.
The sheet of aluminum is used to block the beta radiation
Properties of alpha radiation:
mass 4 amu, charge +2, least penetration
Alpha radiations are emitted as a result of radioactive decay. The atom emit the alpha particles consist of two proton and two neutrons. Which is also called helium nuclei. When atom undergoes the alpha emission the original atom convert into the atom having mass number less than 4 and atomic number less than 2 as compared to parent atom the starting atom.
Alpha radiations can travel in a short distance.
These radiations can not penetrate into the skin or clothes.
These radiations can be harmful for the human if these are inhaled.
These radiations can be stopped by a piece of paper.
Gamma radiations:
mass 0, charge 0, deepest penetration
Gamma radiations are high energy radiations having no mass.
These radiations are travel at the speed of light.
Gamma radiations can penetrate into the many materials.
These radiations are also used to treat the cancer.
Lead is used for the protection against gamma radiations because of its high molecular density.
The lead apron are used by the person when treated with gamma radiations.
