All electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light. How far they travel depends on when or whether they hit an object that they cannot pass through.

Which ray is the fastest gamma alpha beta?

Gamma rays. Since they are electromagnetic waves, they travel at the speed of light.


Do gamma ray bursts emit light faster than the speed of light?

Gamma ray bursts emitting light! What is meant by this? Any way gamma ray coming out of a radioactive nucleus is also an electromagnetic radiation as light but with very much higher frequency. Gamma ray also travels with the same speed as light does. According to Einstein's theory of relativity, no radiation can travel with a velocity higher than that of light


Is it true that gamma rays travel with constant velocity?

Yes. Gamma Rays are photons (like visible light, just at another part of the electromagnetic spectrum). They travel with constant velocity at the speed of light (only in a vacuum). Although the original speed of the gamma ray varies.

How much faster is a gamma ray than x-ray?

I think that they are both the same, as they are both electromagnetic radiation. Hence they both travel at the speed of light.


Is gamma ray a visible light?

No, gamma rays are not visible to the human eye.

Which form of radiation form the sun has the shortest?

The form of radiation from the sun that has the shortest wave length is known as a gamma ray. The next type of ray that is longer than a gamma ray is an x-ray.


Does visible light requrie a medium?

since light wave is electromagnetic wave and is able to travel through vacuum. eg.x-ray gamma ray radio waves etc hence due to the electromagnetic properties of visible light it does not required medium
