What else can I help you with?
What are the similarities between light and gamma rays?
Light ray and gamma ray both travel in a straight line.
What is the difference between visible light and gamma waves?
Gamma rays are of higher energy and much much shorter wavelength than visible light.
Is gamma ray a visible light?
No, gamma rays are not visible to the human eye.
What has a higher frequency gamma rays or visible ray?
Gamma rays have a higher frequency than visible light. Gamma rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation with the highest frequency and energy in the electromagnetic spectrum, while visible light falls in the middle range of the spectrum.
Where is visible light found in the electromagnetic spectrum?
Electromagnetism is manifest along a continuum between slower radio waves and faster energy gamma waves. Visible light can be found in the range between infrared light (slower than waves of visible light) and ultraviolet light (faster than waves of visible light).
What are the similarities between WD 40 and a light bulb?
There are no similarities between WD 40 lubrication oil and a device that produces visible light when a current is applied across its filament load.
What are the similarities between WD-40 and a light bulb?
There are no similarities between WD 40 lubrication oil and a device that produces visible light when a current is applied across its filament load.
How does the wavelength of gamma rays compare to the wavelength of visible light?
It is electromagnetic radiation, which is the same in composition as visible light but has a much higher frequency/shorter wavelength, and will do damage to any biological material it passes through. Both travel at the same speed ('velocity of light') but gamma radiation can penetrate material opaque to visible light.
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.
Gamma radiation is of lower energy than visible radiation?
No. Gamma radiation is of higher energy than visible (light) radiation.
What happens to the penetration in our bodies when we move from visible light to gamma rays?
As we move from visible light to gamma rays, the penetration depth into our bodies increases significantly. Gamma rays are more energetic and have shorter wavelengths, allowing them to penetrate deeper into tissues and cause more damage compared to visible light. This increased penetration can lead to greater health risks when exposed to gamma rays compared to visible light.
Are Gamma rays and radio waves both higher frequency than human vision can detect?
No. Visible light is in between those particular forms of electromagnetic radiation. Radio waves are lower frequency (longer wavelength) than visible light. Gamma rays are higher frequency (shorter wavelength) than visible light.
