Does xrays have a lower frequency?

Compared to most forms of electromagnetic radiation, X-rays have a high frequency. Only gamma rays have a higher frequency.


Which has higher frequency x-ray or gamma ray?

Gamma rays have a higher frequency.


What has a higher frequency gamma rays or visible ray?

Gamma rays have a much higher frequency than visible light with ultraviolet and x-rays between them.


Which has a higher frequency gamma rays or radio rays?

Gamma rays have a much higher frequency then radio waves.


Does visible light have a higher frequency than gamma rays?

No, visible light has a lower frequency than gamma rays. Gamma rays are the highest frequency of electromagnetic energy. They are above X-rays.


A frequency higher than x-rays?

Gamma rays


Do xrays and gamma rays have higher frequencies than ultraviolet rays?

Because that term is the name we have given to electromagnetic radiation with the highest observed frequency. If they had lower frequency, then we would call them by another name. And if they're called by that name, then they must be rays of the highest observed frequency, all because that is how we have defined them.


Do gamma rays have a higher frequency than x rays?

Generally speaking, it is gamma rays that have a higher frequency (and energy) than X-rays. The upper end of the X-ray spectrum and the lower end of the gamma ray spectrum enjoy a bit of overlap, but the X-ray does not have a higher frequency than the gamma ray.


Does the intensity of Xrays and gamma rays differ?

Intensity is independent of frequency or wavelength. So whether it is Xray or gamma ray both can have the same intensity.


What are the similarities and differences between Xrays and gamma rays?

What are the differences between x-rays and gamma rays?


Which band of the electromagnetic spectrum has a frequency higher than x-rays?

Gamma rays


Do X-rays have a higher or lower frequency than light waves?

Light waves and X-rays are both forms of electromagnetic energy. X-rays, however, have higher energy (higher frequency and shorter wavelength) than (visible) light.
