What else can I help you with?
What would not have been discovered without the atom bomb?
Xrays would have not been invented but i dont know bout the rest Xrays would have not been invented but i dont know bout the rest
What is the electro-magetic spectrum?
gamma rays, xrays, uv light, visible light, infra red, microwaves, radio waves
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.
What are some mutagen examples?
Most common mutagens:Ionizing radiation such as xrays, gamma rays and alpha particlesUltraviolet (tanning beds)Intercalating agentsBenzeneChemical spills
Is the suns rays gamma rays?
No, the Sun mostly emits visible light rays. A small amount of gamma rays might be emitted, but they would be insignificant. Inside the Sun, gamma rays are produced but they never escape in that form. The super-heated gases around the sun in the chromosphere emit mostly higher energy xrays, UV rays but also some gamma rays. Natural gamma rays sources are thought to be the most energetic events in the Universe. Although Supernovae seem to be the source of some, others are still somewhat mysterious.
What are some examples of mutagens?

Can tungsten block x-ray?
Yes and no. It is a dense metal but the xrays would react with the molecules in tungsten and that causes more xrays. This reaction is called compton scatter.
Does the intensity of Xrays and gamma rays differ?
Yes, the intensity of X-rays and gamma rays can differ. Gamma rays typically have higher frequencies and energies than X-rays, so they can be more penetrating and have a higher intensity. However, the actual intensity of these radiation types depends on factors such as the source strength and distance from the source.
What are facts about gamma rays?
Gamma rays are the most dangerous kind of radiation.When massive stars die they may give off gamma rays. It is the "birth cry" of a black hole.When you are on the surface of the earth, you get very little, when you are a flying airplane you get a bit more, and when your in space you get very large amounts of them. (Deadly Amounts)Gamma Rays can kill living cellsalso....-travel at the speed of light-used to kill and treat certain type of cancers and tumors-it is possible to stop gamma rays, they can be stopped by lead and concrete-Gamma ray bursts in space creates more energy in 10 seconds than sun will in its entire 10 billion lifetime
Are xrays also gamma rays?
X-rays and gamma rays are both forms of electromagnetic radiation, but they have different origins and energy levels. X-rays are produced by the deceleration of high-energy electrons, while gamma rays are emitted from the nucleus of an atom during radioactive decay. Both types of radiation can penetrate materials, but gamma rays have higher energy and can be more penetrating than x-rays.
What space telescope is used to study xrays?
There's a great number of space-based X-ray telescopes. The most famous ones are Chandra, NuSTAR, Swift, XMM-Newton.
What do xrays have to do with the holocaust?
They experimented with xrays on the prisoners in the concentration camps. Mostly at Auschwitz.
