Are xrays electromagnetic in nature?
Yes.
How can yellow light ultraviolet waves and xrays be described?
they are electromagnetic. So they have an electromagnetic spectrum.
What are 2 electromagnetic waves besides light?
Xrays, gamma rays, microwaves, ultraviolet rays, radiowaves and infrared rays.
How long are X-ray wavelengths compared with ultraviolet wavelengths?
Ultraviolet photons have wavelengths below 400nm. X-ray photons have wavelengths between 0.01nm - 10nm. Photons with wavelengths smaller than xrays' are called gamma rays.
What do xrays have to do with the holocaust?
They experimented with xrays on the prisoners in the concentration camps. Mostly at Auschwitz.
How much does a series of knee xrays cost?
I just got my xrays taken for my left knee, it was four xrays for $100, it may be more other places
How is the electromagnetic spectrum divided?
The Electromagnetic Spectrum consists of: (From least intense to most)Radio WavesMicrowavesInfraredVisible LightUltraviolet LightX-RaysGamma Rays
Which types of electromagnetic radiation can be detected using telescopes on Earth?
They can detect radio waves, infrared radiation, ultraviolet radiation, x-rays, and gamma rays.
Why does x rays light get farther into your bodies than ultraviolet?
Xrays have smaller wavelengths, and can only been seen from the shadows it makes on xray paper. X-rays have a shorter wavelength than ultraviolet, thus making them smaller photons, hard x-radiation has a wavelength around .01 nanometers and ultraviolet has a wavelength around 10 nanometers at the shortest wavelength. This means it is easier for the smaller x-rays to penetrate the human body than ultraviolet wavelengths. 1000 nanometers = 1 micron, 1000000 microns = 1 millimeter
Bad when pregnant and take xrays?
Xrays are damaging to developing babies. Only as last resort.
What do you call a person who does xrays?
a person who translates your xrays is called a radiologist.
What percents of xrays are produced in a photoelectric effect?
The amount of xrays produced in a photoelectric effect varies. . . . alot.
