All electromagnetic waves involves the propagation of electric and magnetic fields though space with speed 3 x 108 ms-1 .Therefore , the speed of x rays would probably be same as the speed of light.

The speed of "microwaves" is the same as the speed of radio, TV, infrared, ultraviolet,

visible light, x-rays, and gamma rays. All of them are the same physical phenomenon ...

electromagnetic radiation ... with different wavelengths.

Their speed in vacuum is 299,792,458 meters per second, slightly less in material media.

It is the same speed as the speed of light which is 3x10^8 m/s or 300000000 m/s

Sorry. "Meters" is not a unit of speed.

The speed of light is 299,792,458 meters per second in vacuum.

Is the velocity of X-rays constant?

Yes, all xrays travel at the speed of light.


Do xrays travel at the speed of sound?

They travel much, much faster than that.


If earth and a star were diverging at a combined speed greater than that of light would that star not appear as a black hole?

No. We would be unable to detect it but you can detect black holes(by xrays and light emmitted from material they are sucking up). You would be unable to detect it because if the two were moving away at a combined speed greater than that of light then light from the star could never reach the earth.


How can yellow light ultraviolet waves and xrays be described?

they are electromagnetic. So they have an electromagnetic spectrum.


What is the electro-magetic spectrum?

gamma rays, xrays, uv light, visible light, infra red, microwaves, radio waves


What speed do radio waves travel in air?

Radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultra violet, XRays, and gamma rays are all part of the "electromagnetic spectrum". They are all electromagnetic radiation and they all travel at the speed of light (186,000 miles per second). The only difference between them is their frequencies (or wavelengths)


Is it the speed of light or light speed?

Is what the speed of light or light speed.ANSWER300,000 km/s


Can visible light travel faster in a vacuum than both xrays and radio waves?

No. We call it the "speed of light", but it's also the speed of radio, X-rays, heat, ultraviolet, microwave, gamma rays, etc, and all forms of electromagnetic radiation travel at the same speed, as long as they're in the same medium (vacuum or material substance).
