Does gamma rays have a low frequency and a short wavelength?

No. Gamma rays have a high frequency, and a short wavelength.


What are x-rays high or low frequency?

They're not comparable. -- Cosmic rays are high-energy charged particles moving at less than the speed of light, with mass and kinetic energy but no characteristic frequency or wavelength. -- Gamma rays are electromagnetic radiation.


Is there a ray with shorter wavelength than the gamma ray?

Cosmic rays have shorter wavelength than gamma rays


How does energy relate to?

Energy is inversely proportional to wavelength: the shorter the wavelength (X-rays, gamma rays) the greater the energy.


Infrared rays have a shorter wavelength than ultraviolet rays?

No, Infra-red has a longer wavelength than Ultraviolet.


Is the UV radiation the sortest wavelength?

No, gamma rays have the shortest wavelength.


What is wavelength in picometers?

Gamma rays.


What is the range of wavelength for X-rays?

X-Rays have wavelength ranging from 1x 10-10 to 3 x 10-8 meters.


What has shortest wavelength?

X-rays and Gamma rays. Radio Waves have the longest.


Gamma rays have shorter wavelength than infrared rays?

Yes. The wavelength of radiation is w=hc/Energy. Gamma energy is larger than infrared energy, thus has shorter wavelength.


How one can increase the penetrating power of x-rays?

X-rays can be given increased power to penetrate by increasing their frequency (shortening their wavelength). This is generally accomplished by increasing the operating voltage of the X-ray tube. Higher voltages will accelerate electrons more, and their increased energy will result in more energetic ("harder") X-rays at the target of the anode.


What waves have the shortest wavelength and the?

Gamma rays
