They're the exact same physical phenomenon ... electromagnetic radiation ... but x-rays have
much shorter wavelengths.
X-rays are the name we give to those waves in the range of 0.01 to 10 nanometers.
That's 0.00000001 to 0.00001 millimeter.
What else can I help you with?
Are X-rays not a form of matter?
Yes, X-rays at not a form of matter. They are a form of electromagnetic energy.
Are x Rays a form of matter?
Yes, X-rays at not a form of matter. They are a form of electromagnetic energy.
Are x-rays made of electrons?
No, X-Rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation
Which is the correct form plane x-ray or plain x-ray?
Plain x-rays are x-rays that do not demonstrate the planes of bone-on-bone as well as other x-rays such as MRI's.
What form of energy are x-rays and ultraviolet light?
X-rays and ultraviolet light are forms of electromagnetic energy.
Which form of energy is represented by X-rays?
Radiant. X-rays are radiated from the Sun and are part of radiant energy
Does x-rays or gamma rays have lower energy?
X-rays have lower energy than gamma rays. Gamma rays are a form of high-energy electromagnetic radiation, while x-rays have lower energy and shorter wavelengths than gamma rays.
What form of radiation has the greater frequency?
Gamma rays have the highest frequency among the electromagnetic spectrum, followed by X-rays and ultraviolet rays.
What are facts about x rays?
X-rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation with a very short wavelength. They are used by doctors to see inside the human body.
What rays can be used to form images of bones and internal organs?
The type of rays are x-rays. The way they take a picture of just one part of your body is they put a lead apron on you. HI Quiz Answer: X-Rays
Are X-rays similar to beta rays?
Though both are forms of ionizing radiation, an X-ray is a form of electromagnetic radiation, while a beta ray is actually a beta particle. The beta particle is a form of particulate radiation, and the beta particle could be either an electron or a positron.
Is radiation an xray?
No, they can't. X-rays, at least the high energy ones, are a form of ionizing radiation. Ionizing radiation can break chemical bonds, but it cannot activate a substance. That is, X-rays cannot make a substance radioactive. Only particulate radiation can "induce" radioactivity, and that will happen according to the type of particulate radiation and the material being bombarded. Cosmic rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation even more energetic than X-rays, and even they cannot make a substance radioactive. Because X-rays cannot make a substance radioactive, they cannot make a site, a room, or an area of any kind radioactive.
