Why do gamma rays have no mass at all?

Gamma rays have no mass because they are a form of electromagnetic radiation, which consists of massless particles called photons. Photons, including gamma rays, do not have rest mass, but they do have energy and momentum.


Do gamma ray have mass?

They are electromagnetic radiation, so no.


Does gamma radiation have no mass?

No Gamma Rays do not have mass. All electromagnetic radiation has no mass.


Which type of radioavtive decay does the mass number remain unchanged?

In gamma decay, the mass number remains unchanged as there is no emission of particles, only high-energy gamma rays are emitted. This process does not affect the nucleus composition, unlike alpha and beta decays which result in a change in the mass number.


What is a gamma rays mass?

A gamma ray has no mass as it is a part of the electromagnetic spectrum. It is similar in properties to light, it is just at a smaller wavelength.


Does Gamma ray primarily consist of pure energy and no mass?

Gamma rays are a type of electromagnetic radiation, which is a type energy. Because a gamma ray is a type of energy, it has no mass.


Does an atomic increase through gamma radiation?

it remains the same gamma rays have no mass and no electrical charge


What kind of gamma ray can penetrate solids?

Gamma rays are gamma rays are gamma rays.


What types of radiation has no mass?

electromagnetic radiation (e.g. radio, light, x-rays, gamma rays)


Do gamma rays have physical mass?

Well, gamma rays are a type of electromagnetic radiation, much like light or radio waves. They don't have any physical mass because they are made up of pure energy. Just like how a gentle breeze can't be weighed, gamma rays move through space without any mass at all.


How can gamma decay without having mass?

It can't, as far as I know. "Gamma decay" doesn't refer to the decay of gamma rays; rather, it refers to a decay of ATOMS, or some other particles, which produces gamma rays in the process.
