Is an X-ray wave a mechanical wave?
No, an X-ray is not a mechanical wave. An X-ray is an electromagnetic wave. However, in polar molecules, an X-ray can cause the molecule to vibrate rapidly, just like a microwave oven can.
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
What has higher frequency an X-ray or a tv wave?
An X-ray is a high frequency (high energy) electromagnetic wave. It is much higher in frequency than any broadcast wave. The only electromagnetic radiation with higher frequency (shorter wavelength) than the X-ray is the gamma ray.
What electromagnetic wave has more energy than an x-ray?
A gamma ray has more energy than an X-ray.
Is an x-ray a compressional wave?
No.An x-ray is an electromagnetic wave. The varying electric and magnetic fields of which it is composed are perpendicular to each other and to the direction of propagation.It is a transverse wave, not compressional.
Which has the greatest frequency out of radio wave microwave infrared wave visible light ultraviolet light x-ray gamma ray?
gamma ray
What wave has the shortest wavelength and the highest frequency?
x-ray
Why X-ray did not in liquid?
Because it is light, a kind of wave.
How long are X ray wave lengths compared with ultraviolet wave lengths?
X-rays are shorter waves than ultraviolet ones.
What does a gamma wave do in an X-ray machine?
A gamma ray might have a good chance of going right through the X-ray machine. Remember that the X-ray machine creates X-rays and not gamma rays to perform its function.
Is an xray a light wave?
Yes an X-Ray is a light wave. It comes before Gamma Rays! The smallest wave visible.
What wave has a higher frequency microwave of X-ray?
An X-ray is a high frequency (high energy) electromagnetic wave. It is much higher in frequency than any broadcast wave. The only electromagnetic radiation with higher frequency (shorter wavelength) than the X-ray is the gamma ray.
