Question
Chapter 11.9, Problem 1QQ
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
In the order of increasing penetrating power into a matter the naturally occurring radiations is correctly arranged in which option has to be chosen.
Concept Introduction:
Naturally occurring radioactive emissions are alpha particle, beta particle and gamma rays. They all differ in the penetration power into a matter and cause ionization.
