How is a radio wave different than a gamma wave?

Radiowave is nonionizing while gamma ray is ionizing.


Does a radio wave or gamma ray have higher a amplitude?

A gamma ray has a higher amplitude than a radio wave. Gamma rays have shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies compared to radio waves, resulting in higher energy and therefore higher amplitudes.


Is the speed of a radio wave in a vacuum greater than the speed of a gamma ray?

No. The speed of all electromagnetic radiation is the same in vacuum, from the longest radio wave to the shortest gamma wave.


What are the examples of electromagnetic wave that we can find in electromagnetic spectrum?

-- a radio wave -- a heat wave -- a yellow wave -- a blue wave -- an ultraviolet wave -- an X-ray -- a gamma ray


Which wave in the EM spectrum has the shortest wavelength?

Gamma rays have the shortest wavelength. Electromagnetic wave is a kind of energy being propagated even through free space (vacuum). It is classified based on the mode of producing it as Radio waves, micro waves, infra red, visible, ultra violet, X-ray and Gamma ray. Out of these seven, radio waves have the lowest frequency and Gamma ray has the highest frequency. As frequency and wavelength are inversely related, radio wave would have the longest wavelength.


How is a radio wave different from a gamma wave?

Radio waves are lower frequency.


What type of wave is a gamma ray?

A gamma ray is a type of electromagnetic wave that has the highest frequency and energy in the electromagnetic spectrum. It is a form of ionizing radiation.


What kind of wave is a gamma ray?

A gamma ray is an electromagnetic wave. It has the highest frequency (and energy) as well as the shortest wavelength on any wave on the electromagnetic spectrum.


Is a gamma wave a mechanical wave?

No, a gamma wave is not a mechanical wave. Gamma waves are a type of electromagnetic radiation with very high frequency and energy. They are often associated with nuclear reactions and subatomic particles.
