sam says that beta particles are not used to irradiate food because they make it radioactive. Jo says that the reason is that beta particles would not be able to penetrate all the way through think packages of food. Who is correct, Sam or Jo?

Answer:

Jo

Explanation:

irradiating food doesn't make it radioactive (that's contamination) and beta particles are stopped by aluminium foil or thin metals, so it may not pass through thick packaging (usually gamma is used to irradiate foods as it can pass through the packaging)
