The highest energy photons are described as Gamma. But in terms of the strength, there are more light sources that we encounter everyday of a greater intensity than gamma, as intensity is a measure of the number of photons arriving over an area in a given time. Therefore, visible light and infra-red from the sun are much more intense than the gamma we encounter everyday, as gamma photons are few and far between.

What is stronger than the sun light?
nothing.
How does the wavelength of gamma rays compare to the wavelength of visible light?
It is electromagnetic radiation, which is the same in composition as visible light but has a much higher frequency/shorter wavelength, and will do damage to any biological material it passes through. Both travel at the same speed ('velocity of light') but gamma radiation can penetrate material opaque to visible light.
Why a photon of red light has less penetrative ability than a gamma ray photon?
I think it is because a photon has less energy that is why it has less ability than a gamma ray photon
Are beta wavelengths stronger than visible light?
Yes, beta energies are "stronger" than visible light. Beta is in the x-ray portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, placing it above visible light.
How much stronger is led than a regular light bulb?
50 times stronger from, Keshav
Do red light penetrate most than gamma why?
Red light does not penetrate more than gamma rays.
Is red light a gamma wave?
No, gamma radiation is of much shorter wavelength than red light.
Does visible light have a higher frequency than gamma rays?
No, visible light has a lower frequency than gamma rays. Gamma rays are the highest frequency of electromagnetic energy. They are above X-rays.
Gamma radiation is of lower energy than visible radiation?
No. Gamma radiation is of higher energy than visible (light) radiation.
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
What is the difference between visible light and gamma waves?
Gamma rays are of higher energy and much much shorter wavelength than visible light.
What has wavelength that are shorter than visible light?
We know that ultraviolet light, X-rays and gamma rays have wavelengths shorter than visible light.
What has wavelengths that are shorter than light?
We know that ultraviolet light, X-rays and gamma rays have wavelengths shorter than visible light.
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
Are sound waves stronger than light waves?
No because light waves are stronger and brighter and sound waves are light and dull
What is stronger than the sun light?
nothing.
Is a light saber stronger than the force?
NO!
