It depends on the medium it is travelling though. In the vacuum of space, they travel at the same speed (c, the speed of light in vacuum). In air or water, the X-rays tend to just "rip" through the air at c... and get absorbed. Radio waves tend to propagate through the air at less than c, and keep on moving for long distances. Water tends to dampen and absorb both waves after just a few tens of meters (much less for x-rays) of travel path. It is not always the same event that triggers both x-ray and radio wave emissions. The processes generating both are sometimes offset in time. As a simile, the flash of lightning actually preceeds the bang of thunder, the neutrons from a supernova are emitted before the first detectable flare of a star shedding matter, and so on.
What else can I help you with?
Gamma rays faster than radio waves?
No. Gamma rays and radio waves are both electromagnetic waves and travel at the same speed. They just have different wavelengths/frequencies.
Which is faster gamma waves or radio waves?
Both are forms of electromagnetic energy and travel at the same speed, which is the speed of light.
Which type of wave travels faster gamma or radio?
The same. Both are electromagnetic waves; in a vacuum, they both travel at the speed of light.
Answer for radiation from gamma to radio waves?
Gamma rays are very high energetic rays whereas radio waves are very weak in strength. However, radio waves can travel far distances and have large wavelength. Radio waves have large application in the field of telecommunication.
What is the difference between radio waves and gramma waves?
The wavelength of radio waves are on the magnitude of 10^4 meters, while gamma rays have a far shorter wavelength of around 10^-14. This implies that gamma rays carry a lot more energy than radio waves, due to their frequency being much higher than that of radio wave frequencies.
Gamma rays faster than radio waves?

What is the objective of travel faster radio waves or sound waves?
sound waves

Do gamma particles travel fastest?
Gamma particles are photons - or electromagnetic waves. They travel at the speed of light; nothing can go faster than that.
Which travels faster radio waves or microwaves?
-- Microwave ARE radio waves.-- All electromagnetic waves travel at the same speed, including radio, microwaves,heat, infrared radiation, light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays, gamma rays, and allthe others.
How are gamma waves and radio waves the same?
Gamma waves and radio waves are both forms of electromagnetic radiation that travel at the speed of light and can carry energy and information. They both have specific frequencies and wavelengths within the electromagnetic spectrum, with gamma waves having the highest frequencies and shortest wavelengths, and radio waves having lower frequencies and longer wavelengths.
Why do radio waves travel faster than the sound wave?
Radio waves are just low frequency light waves. They travel at the speed of light, much faster than sound waves which are just changes in pressure traveling in waves
What has highest frequency gamma rays infared waves or radio waves?
Gamma rays have the highest frequency among gamma rays, infrared waves, and radio waves.
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.
Radio and gamma rays are two types of what kind of waves?
Radio and gamma waves are two types of electromagneticwaves.
