Penetration Power of Radioactive Radiation

In this experiment you will be able to test the penetrating power of radioactive radiation. You will investigate that alpha radiation has a very low penetration distance because it is composed of helium nuclei, beta radiation can travel longer distances than alpha radiation because it contains electrons, and gamma radiation can travel much longer distances because it is a high-energy electromagnetic wave.
