well none, its either gamma ray or gamma radiation, it has the same wavelength as an x-ray but higher energy level.


What is the level of danger gamma rays poses to living organisms?

The level is higher than most people.


Electron X can change to a higher energy level or a lower energy level Which statement is true of electron X?

Electron X absorbs energy when it changes to a higher energy level. Electron X absorbs energy when it changes to a higher energy level. It takes energy to do that.


What types of waves in the electromagnetic spectrum have the highest energy level?

Gamma rays


Do electrons release energy when they move to a higher energy level?

No, electrons must absorb energy in order to move to a higher energy level. They release energy when they move to a lower energy level.


Why do some researchers complain when the emission of a gamma particle is called gamma decay?

Because its not a decay process. Gamma is an emission of energy in the form of photons from the nucleus when the nucleus changes from one energy level to a lower energy level. It is true that this is often preceded by a decay event, such as alpha or beta, but it is a distinct, non decay, event.

What do you call an atom if you move an electron in an atom from a low energy level to a higher energy level within the atom?

no , it only emits energy if it moves from a higher energy level to a lower energy level.


Operation of led diode?

LED diode:when certain amount of voltage is applied to LED diode the electrons which are present in lower energy level jumps in to higher energy level after certain time the electrons in the higher energy level again jumps in to lower energy level .while jumping from higher energy level to lower energy level electrons emits energy in the form of light(visible or invisible)


If an electron moves from a lower energy level to a higher energy level electromagnetic radiation is what?

"Absorbed"
