Gamma rays used for?
Usually for killing cancerous tumors, as in radiotherapy. Sometimes also for medical imaging, as in a gamma camera. Generally, Gamma rays are dangerous to living tissue.
How are gamma rays used in your everyday life?
While we are all exposed to them a little form rocks and from outer space, they are NOT used in everyday life. Gamma rays are dangerous.
The electromagnetic waves with the highest frequencies are called?
The answer is gamma rays.
What are the electromagnetic waves with the shortest wavelengths and the highest frequency called?
Gamma Rays
Are gamma rays light?
Gamma rays, just like (visible) light rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation. Gamma rays have a much shorter wavelength (and thus more energy) than visible light, which is why they are much more dangerous to human beings (e.g. they may cause cancer).
Are gamma rays more dangerous than x rays?
Yes, of course.
What is the most dangerous type of radiation to humans?
gamma rays
What type of radiation is probably the most dangerous to humans?

Do gamma rays or x-rays have lower energy?
X-rays have lower energy, though they are both dangerous.
Can gamma rays make a human being much powerful like the incredible HULK?
No. Gamma rays are extremely dangerous to humans and can cause death.
How are gamma ray used for communication?
Gamma Rays can pass straight through human tissue and are therefore highly dangerous. The only time you are likely to use Gamma rays is in scientific research.
