Which of the following has the maximum penetration power ?
- A X-rays
- B Alpha rays
- C Beta rays
- D Gamma rays
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) Gamma rays
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Among the options listed, gamma rays have the maximum penetration power because they consist of high-energy electromagnetic radiation with no mass or charge. This allows them to pass through materials that easily stop alpha rays (blocked by paper) and beta rays (blocked by…
