What is used in the x-ray?
Gamma ray radiation
Is an x ray nuclear?
No. In fact, the term X-ray is usually used specifically for radiation that is NOT nuclear in origin; the term for the equivalent electromagnetic radiation from nuclear sources is "gamma rays".
Are there man-made sources of gamma rays radiation?
Yes, man-made sources of gamma ray radiation include nuclear power plants, certain medical imaging procedures like gamma cameras and radiation therapy machines, as well as industrial applications such as sterilization techniques and certain types of scientific research equipment.
Which of the three kinds of radiation is most penetrating?
Gamma radiation is the most penetrating of the three types of radiation (alpha, beta, and gamma). Gamma radiation can penetrate through the human body and thick shielding, making it the most difficult to shield against.
What are the names of the three main types of radiation?
The three main types of radiation are alpha radiation, beta radiation, and gamma radiation. Alpha radiation consists of alpha particles, beta radiation consists of beta particles, and gamma radiation consists of gamma rays.
What type of ray is gamma ray commonly known as?
well none, its either gamma ray or gamma radiation, it has the same wavelength as an x-ray but higher energy level.
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.
Is gamma not considered a type of radiation ray?
Actually, gamma is the ONLY type of radiation ray. Since the three types of radiation are alpha particles, beta particles, and gamma rays, and the other two are particles, technically, gamma rays are the only radiation rays. If that is not what you are looking for, then I recommend rephrasing your question.
What is most similar to gamma radiation?
x-ray
What type of radiation is emitted from Iridium-192?
The radiation emited is gamma ray
What is 2 examples of electromagnetic energy?
Gamma radiation, X-ray radiation
What type of radiation does radioactivity produces?
The Type Of Radiation That It Produce Is The Gamma Ray!
