Solution

The correct answers are:

  • Alpha particles are about 7,000 times more massive than a beta particle
  • Alpha particles have high mass and charge compared with other forms of nuclear radiation

Alpha particles are not the most penetrating form of radiation. In fact, they are the least penetrating due to their high mass and charge. Also, alpha particles do not have the same charge as a beta particle. Alpha particles have a positive charge, while beta particles have a negative charge.
