. A(n) ______, when it is produced by a nucleus at high speed, is more commonly called a beta particle.
Interpretation:
The given statement should be completed.
Concept Introduction:
The electron usually having less penetrating power, when gets speed or velocity it turns into a fast moving beta particle.
Electron acquires this velocity from the nucleus moving rapidly in a circular reactor which results in increasing the penetrating power of the nuclide. Thus, the beta particle appears.
Given:
A(n) _______, when it is produced by nucleus at high speed, is more commonly called beta particles.
The electron usually having less penetrating power, when gets speed or velocity it turns into a fast moving beta particle.
Electron acquires this velocity from the nucleus moving rapidly in a circular reactor which results in increasing the penetrating power of the nuclide. Thus, the beta particle appears.
For example:
The beta particles increase the atomic number of an atom by 1 and no change in the mass of an atom. So, the beta decay of K produces the Ca atom which has one unit increase in the atomic number than K. K has atomic number 19 and Ca has atomic number 20...
