Like many other Disney theme songs, You've Got a Friend in Me has been covered numerous times.
beta particle. A high-speed electron emitted by an atomic nucleus undergoing radioactive decay. A beta particle is created when a neutron becomes a proton. Beta particles have greater speed and penetrating power than alpha particles. â¦ The process by which a neutron becomes a proton and emits an electron is called beta decay.
A beta particle is an electron. A gamma ray is a high-frequency electromagnetic photon. The alpha particle is the least penetrating, because it is large and has the highest charge; due to its high charge, the particle is strongly repelled via electrostatic repulsion. A beta particle is more penetrating than an alpha particle, due to its smaller size and lower charge, but less penetrating than a gamma particle.
