Gamma rays have shorter wavelength than X-rays. Some times X rays might have shorter wavelength than that of gamma rays. Why so?
The main reason is that we assign name to the electromagnetic radiations just based on the method of production.
X-rays are produced by stopping the fast moving electrons
But gamma rays come out the nuclear reaction.
What else can I help you with?
What has bigger wave lengths microwaves or gamma rays?
Gamma rays have shorter wavelengths compared to microwaves. This means that microwaves have longer wavelengths than gamma rays.
Are microwaves longer than gamma rays?
No, gamma rays have shorter wavelengths than microwaves. Gamma rays have the shortest wavelength and highest frequency in the electromagnetic spectrum, while microwaves have longer wavelengths and lower frequencies.
Which wave has a shorter frequency than gamma rays?
We don't have a name for anything with wavelengths shorter than gamma rays.
What is the ascending order of the eight electromagnetic spectrum waves base from their wavelength?
Shortest wavelength is gamma rays. Next longer wavelength is with Xrays. Then Ultraviolet, visible radiations, infra red, microwaves, radio waves with shorter wavelength and radio waves with longer wavelength
Is there a ray with shorter wavelength than the gamma ray?
Cosmic rays have shorter wavelength than gamma rays
Do light waves or gamma rays have shorter wave lengths?
I assume by light rays, you mean visible light rays. In this case, gamma rays have shorter wave lengths.
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 has shorter wavelengths than infrared rays?
Ultraviolet rays have shorter wavelengths than infrared rays. Ultraviolet rays have wavelengths shorter than visible light, making them invisible to the human eye, while infrared rays have longer wavelengths.
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 waves have shorter wavelength's than microwaves?
X-rays and gamma rays have shorter wavelengths than microwaves.
Does xrays have a lower frequency?
Compared to most forms of electromagnetic radiation, X-rays have a high frequency. Only gamma rays have a higher frequency.
Is the same for radio waves and gamma rays traveling in space?
No, radio waves and gamma rays have different wavelengths and energies. Radio waves have longer wavelengths and lower energies, while gamma rays have shorter wavelengths and higher energies. This leads to differences in how they interact with the environment as they travel through space.
