Explanation / Answer

Ans(36) alpha radiation consists of positive charged particles . option A

Ans(37) alpha radiation is identical to the nucleus of a helium atom.alpha particle consists of two protons and two neutrons bound together into a partical identical to He nucleus option A

Ans (38) gamma radiation is most penetrating because these are highly energetic waves option C
