Answer #1

Option 'C' (Alphas) is correct

Justification: Alpha rays has a high quality factor. The quality factor is the factor by which the absorbed dose is to be multiplied to gain the quantity required for ionizing radiation. It is denoted by 'Q'. The quality factor for alpha particles is 20. So, this option is correct.

Justification for incorrect options:

  • Options 'A' and 'B' are incorrect because the quality factor for X-rays and Gamma rays is one (1), which is less than the quality factor for alpha particles. So, these two options are not correct.

Thank you!
