What prevents most of the suns rays from reaching us?
The Atmosphere
Which layer of the atmosphere blocks gamma rays?
The ozone layer in the stratosphere blocks gamma rays from reaching the Earth's surface.
Does water vapor stop gamma rays from reaching earth?
no
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.
Which is the most penetrating rays x-rays or gamma rays?
Gamma rays are the most penetration rays because of its shortest wave length...
Can diamonds refract gamma rays?
No, diamonds do not refract gamma rays because gamma rays have such high energy that they pass through most materials without being significantly altered or slowed down. Diamonds, like most materials, are not effective at refracting gamma rays.
What kind of gamma ray can penetrate solids?
Gamma rays are gamma rays are gamma rays.
Why are only gamma rays used to sterilise equipment and not alpha?
Because gamma rays have the most electromagnetic energy.
Do gamma rays hit the surface of earth?
Yes, gamma rays from outer space can reach the surface of the Earth. However, much of the high-energy gamma radiation is absorbed by the Earth's atmosphere, particularly the ozone layer, before reaching the surface.
What wave has the most energy?
Gamma Rays
