What type of wave vibrates the faster cosmic rays or gamma rays?

There's a considerable (overlapping) range of frequencies for both gamma rays and cosmic rays, but the upper reach for gamma rays is considered to be higher than that for cosmic rays, all the way to 10^30Hz.


How does a gamma ray relate to an electromagnetic ray?

A gamma ray is an electromagnetic ray, and that is how they are related. Electromagnetic rays come in a range (a spectrum) of frequencies. We could also say that they come in a range of wavelengths or energies, too. Gamma rays are produced by nuclear action (changes in atomic nuclii), and they are the electromagnetic rays at the very high end of the frequency range (and the energy range). They have the shortest wavelength, too. Below gamma rays are the X-rays, then below that ultraviolet rays. Below that are the optical or visible frequencies of light, and then below that are the infrared rays or wavelengths. Below infrared are the microwave frequencies, and below that we find "regular" radio waves.

What has a higher frequency gamma rays or visible ray?

Gamma rays have a higher frequency than visible light. Gamma rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation with the highest frequency and energy in the electromagnetic spectrum, while visible light falls in the middle range of the spectrum.

What is x rays and gamma rays?

Cathode rays generate x-rays and gamma rays are electromagnetic radiation. Gamma rays have very high penetration power.


Which has a higher frequency gamma rays or xrays?

Gamma rays have a higher frequency than X-rays. Gamma rays are the most energetic form of electromagnetic radiation in the electromagnetic spectrum, whereas X-rays have a lower frequency than gamma rays.
