What is x-ray and gamma rays?
Cathode rays generate x-rays and gamma rays are electromagnetic radiation. Gamma rays have very high penetration power.
What electromagnetic waves have the highest frequencies?
Gamma rays.Gamma rays.Gamma rays.Gamma rays.
What are the similarities and differences between Xrays and gamma rays?
What are the differences between x-rays and gamma rays?
What electromagnetic wave has a wavelength shorter than a microwave but longer than light?
Waves the have a wavelength slightly shorter than the visible light are as follows: 1. Ultraviolet 2. X-rays 3. Gamma rays
Do gamma rays have a higher frequency than x rays?
Generally speaking, it is gamma rays that have a higher frequency (and energy) than X-rays. The upper end of the X-ray spectrum and the lower end of the gamma ray spectrum enjoy a bit of overlap, but the X-ray does not have a higher frequency than the gamma ray.
Why are gamma rays and X-rays harmful to students?
Gamma rays and X-rays are very high energy, highly penetrating forms of radiation. This is harmful to humans as these forms of radiation can cause DNA damage.
Are x-rays energy the same as gamma rays?
Since x-rays have lower frequencies than gamma rays have, each x-ray photon carries less energy than a gamma ray photon carries. Both carry enough energy to damage living cells.
What is x rays and gamma rays?
Cathode rays generate x-rays and gamma rays are electromagnetic radiation. Gamma rays have very high penetration power.
What is x-ray and gamma rays?
Cathode rays generate x-rays and gamma rays are electromagnetic radiation. Gamma rays have very high penetration power.
Are X-rays and Gamma rays higher frequencies than ultraviolet rays?
Yes, X-rays and gamma rays have higher frequencies than ultraviolet rays.
What electromagnetic waves have the highest frequencies?
Gamma rays.Gamma rays.Gamma rays.Gamma rays.
Do both x rays and gamma rays have higher frequencies than ultraviolet rays?
Both Gamma Rays and X Rays have a much high frequency that Ultraviolet Rays.
What are the similarities and differences between Xrays and gamma rays?
What are the differences between x-rays and gamma rays?
Do gamma rays have a higher or lower energy level than X-rays?
gamma rays have a way stonger/higher energy level then x rays
What kills harmful bacteria in food gamma rays or x-rays?
Gamma ray
What electromagnetic wave has a wavelength shorter than a microwave but longer than light?
Waves the have a wavelength slightly shorter than the visible light are as follows: 1. Ultraviolet 2. X-rays 3. Gamma rays
Why x rays and not y rays?
Y-rays do exist. The Y is the Greek symbol for gamma. Gamma rays have more energy than x-rays and are therefore put after them.
