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.


What account for the differences between radio waves X-rays and gamma rays?

The difference is their position on the electromagnetic spectrum.radio waves are on the low frequency / long wavelength end of the spectrum. X - rays and Gamma rays are on the high frequency / short wavelength end.The only difference between x-rays and gamma rays is how they're generated. Gamma rays are created by radioactive decay and/or nuclear reactions; whereas x-rays are generated by high-velocity electrons colliding with matter.ANSWER IT PLEASEWhich of the following account for the differences between radio waves, X-rays, and gamma rays?Check all that apply.A.AmplitudeB.SpeedC.FrequencyD.WavelengthThe answer is wavelength and frequency (apex)R1CO95- Wavelength and Frequency. ^_^


What kind of waves are gamma rays and radio waves?

Radio waves are electromagnetic waves and are a part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Other electromagnetic waves in the electromagnetic spectrum are microwaves, visible light, infrared, ultraviolet, x-rays, and gamma rays


Can radio waves be produced with a higher frequency than gamma rays?

No, radio waves are less energetic than gamma rays. This is so because gamma rays have a higher frequency causing the waves to be closer together. However both radio and gamma waves are a form of light (electromagnetic radiation).


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.
