Question 2 (1) Assume that the average energy of β-rays (electrons) emitted from the S-ray source is 0.8 MeV, and the average ionization energy of gas molecules (atoms) in the GM counter tube is about 30 eV. Find the number of gas molecules ionized when one electron enters the GM tube (1MeV = 10°eV). (2) Assuming that the electrons and cations thus generated are attracted to the electrode as they are, what is the total amount of negative charge generated by ionization in C (coulombs)? (3) If this ionization takes 10-4s, what is the current flowing through the anode?
