What are the rays detected from TVs?
CRT and plasma TVs emit x-rays, which can be hazardous.
What electromagenetic radiations were produced and detected by Wilhelm Rontgen?
X-rays
What rays easily detected by a thermometer?
Infrared Rays are easily detected...
What German physicist was credited with the discovery of X-rays?
Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen produced and detected x-rays or Röntgen rays in 1895. He received the first Nobel Prize in Physics for this acchievment in 1901.
What did roentgen invent in 1895?
Roentgen invented nothing in 1895. In 1896, he detected and produced "Roentgen Rays," what are now called X-rays.
Why would an X-ray telescope based on Earth not be able to detect X-Rays emitted distant stars?
blocked by the Earths atmosphere but can be detected by telescopes placed in orbit round the Earth
How do we know x-rays exist?
X-rays are a part of the electromagnetic spectrum, a form of ionizing radiation having high energy, short wavelengths, and extraordinarily high frequencies (30 quadrillion to 30 quintillion Hz). X-rays are divided into two bands, HX (hard x-rays) and SX (soft x-rays). Like all electromagnetic radiation other than visible light, x-rays are detected by their effects, and by using detectors or phosphor screens (e.g. fluoroscopes).
What do gammarays have to do with the universe?
gamma rays, x-rays, ultraviolet rays, visible light, infrared rays, microwaves and radio waves are all part of the electromagnetic spectrum. All these waves are released by different bodies in space. Gamma rays and X-rays can come from Quasars, neutron stars. Radio waves can come from even simple radioactive bodies (very unlikely to be detected).
What is the only way to see a black hole?
Black Holes by nature cannot be "seen" because of their gravitational ability to pull in light. Obviously you "see" something when light hits an object and then enters your eye. Black holes can be detected with a combination of electronics and deductive reasoning. Black holes emit x-rays which can be detected. It is when x-rays are detected from space yet no possible visible source is found that a black hole exists.
My Chiropracter told me that when he use to do Chiropractic X rays in Los Angeles that the Xrays showed plastic surgery breast implants so can you still really see if someone has fake boobs in Xrays?
Yes. Breast implants are easily detected on x-rays.
Which types of electromagnetic radiation can be detected using telescopes on Earth?
They can detect radio waves, infrared radiation, ultraviolet radiation, x-rays, and gamma rays.
Which of the following waves has the highest frequency?
In the electromagnetic spectrum, gamma rays at 1021 cycles / sec are the highest, higher values have been detected from astronomical sources though.
