An X Ray has the wavelength of precisely 1000 nm or nanometers. X Rays can penetrate the human skin without as much damage to cells that gamma rays do.
The wavelength of a gamma ray is 10^-12m, or 0.0000000000000001 m, or 0.0001 nm.
Gamma rays are capable of damaging human skin, as well as being used to locate organisms in a certain environment. In 1896, a pulse of gamma rays was released from a nuclear powerplant in Sevsky, Australia. As the waves traveled, they became weaker. Everything within a 3.86 mile radius of the pulse became ill, and had to take FrCg5 pills (Frocedien Cargocide [V]) for the rest of lives in order to stay alive from Radiation Posioning.
I hope you use this information wisely.

What else can I help you with?
What electromagnetic waves have a wavelength shorter that a single water molecule?
Your comparison attempt is confusing. Water molecules don't have 'waves' by themselves. The ocean has waves, H2O does not. We use the behavior of ocean and sound waves to determine the behavior and makeup of light waves. Humans can only see a portion of the existing electromagnetic spectrum. X-rays and Gamma rays have the shortest wavelengths. Radio waves have the longest.
Are X-rays and Gamma rays higher frequencies than ultraviolet rays?
Yes, X-rays and gamma rays have higher frequencies than ultraviolet rays.
Do both x rays and gamma rays have higher frequencies than ultraviolet rays?
Both Gamma Rays and X Rays have a much high frequency that Ultraviolet Rays.
Do x-rays have a higher or lower energy than gamma rays?
Gamma rays have higher energy than X-rays. Gamma rays are a type of electromagnetic radiation with the highest energy in the electromagnetic spectrum, while X-rays have lower energy and fall between ultraviolet and gamma rays on the spectrum.
Which is the most penetrating rays x-rays or gamma rays?
Gamma rays are the most penetration rays because of its shortest wave length...
What is x rays and gamma rays?
Cathode rays generate x-rays and gamma rays are electromagnetic radiation. Gamma rays have very high penetration power.
What has a lower frequency x rays or gamma rays?
Gamma rays have a higher frequency than X-rays.
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 electromagnetic waves have a wavelength shorter that a single water molecule?

X-rays and Gamma rays have the shortest wavelengths. Radio waves have the longest.
What are the sources of X rays and gamma rays?
X rays and gamma rays are both in the electromagnetic spectrum, gamma rays can come from nuclear bombs (which can pass through metals and concrete). X rays are used in many places, in the hospital, the air port, and many more, I don't really know what their source is I'll have to check in my science encyclopedia.
Are X-rays and Gamma rays higher frequencies than ultraviolet rays?
Yes, X-rays and gamma rays have higher frequencies than ultraviolet rays.
How many electrons does gamma particles have?
A gamma particle is a photon, gamma rays are electromagnetic, like light, radio waves and X-rays. They are of very high frequency, higher and more energetic than typical hospital X-Rays.
What is x-ray and gamma rays?
X-rays and gamma rays are forms of electromagnetic radiation with high energy and short wavelengths. X-rays are commonly used in medical imaging and security screening, while gamma rays are typically associated with nuclear reactions and radioactive decay. Both types of radiation can penetrate materials and tissues, but gamma rays have higher energy levels and are more penetrating than x-rays.
Does ultraviolet light have long or short wavelengths?
The wavelengths for UV light are shorter than for visible light, but much longer than for x-rays or gamma rays.
Do both x rays and gamma rays have higher frequencies than ultraviolet rays?
Both Gamma Rays and X Rays have a much high frequency that Ultraviolet Rays.
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.
Do x-rays have a higher or lower energy than gamma rays?
Gamma rays have higher energy than X-rays. Gamma rays are a type of electromagnetic radiation with the highest energy in the electromagnetic spectrum, while X-rays have lower energy and fall between ultraviolet and gamma rays on the spectrum.
