Question

PLEASE PLEASEEE HELP ME. I HAVE NO IDEA?? LOTS OF POINTS UP FOR GRABS :)

Explain how the properties of α, β and γ radiation affect the level of the hazard at different distances.

Answer 1

alpha is weak and cannot pass through paper so it’s only hazardous and very close distances

beta is a bit stronger but will not be very hazardous at long distances unless there’s aluminium them u can stand next to it

gamma is very hazardous and can be dangerous at basically any distance ig yesh you need alotta protection
