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.
Does xrays have a lower frequency?
Compared to most forms of electromagnetic radiation, X-rays have a high frequency. Only gamma rays have a higher frequency.
Which has higher frequency x-ray or gamma ray?
Gamma rays have a higher frequency.
Do xrays and gamma rays have higher frequencies than ultraviolet rays?
Because that term is the name we have given to electromagnetic radiation with the highest observed frequency. If they had lower frequency, then we would call them by another name. And if they're called by that name, then they must be rays of the highest observed frequency, all because that is how we have defined them.
What electromagnetic waves have the highest frequencies?
Gamma rays.Gamma rays.Gamma rays.Gamma rays.
Compared to gamma rays x-rays have?
Lower frequency, therefore lower energies.
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.

Does xrays have a lower frequency?
Compared to most forms of electromagnetic radiation, X-rays have a high frequency. Only gamma rays have a higher frequency.
Do X-rays have a higher or lower frequency than light waves?
Light waves and X-rays are both forms of electromagnetic energy. X-rays, however, have higher energy (higher frequency and shorter wavelength) than (visible) light.
Compare and contrast x rays and gamma rays?
-- Compare: They're both electromagnetic radiation. -- Contrast: X-rays have longer wavelength, lower frequency, and carry less energy, than gamma rays.
Which type of electromagnetic waves has the highest frequency?
Gamma Rays are the highest frequency waves. Lower than that are X-rays then Ultraviolet. Then visible light, infrared, microwave, and radio waves are the lowest frequency. Here is a link which gives more information http://imagine.gsfc.nasa.gov/science/toolbox/emspectrum1.html
Which has higher frequency x-ray or gamma ray?
Gamma rays have a higher frequency.
A frequency higher than x-rays?
Gamma rays
Do xrays and gamma rays have higher frequencies than ultraviolet rays?
Because that term is the name we have given to electromagnetic radiation with the highest observed frequency. If they had lower frequency, then we would call them by another name. And if they're called by that name, then they must be rays of the highest observed frequency, all because that is how we have defined them.
What kind of frequency does gamma rays have?
Gamma rays have the highest frequency ranging from 5 x 1022 to 3 x1019 Hertz.
What has a higher frequency gamma rays or visible ray?
Gamma rays have a much higher frequency than visible light with ultraviolet and x-rays between them.
