Because he was greedy and would do anything to make his life better
In "Holes" by Louis Sachar, the character X-Ray wanted the shortest shovel because it was easier for him to dig with, given his smaller stature. He believed that having a shorter shovel would give him an advantage in the digging competition at Camp Green Lake, allowing him to work more efficiently. This reflects the broader theme of resourcefulness and adaptability among the boys at the camp.
neutron stars and black holes
Different types of electromagnetic waves provide different kinds of information. Specifically, black holes will emit large amounts of x-rays.
In an indirect way, yes. Gama rays are the highest-intensity form of electromagnetic energy. They usually indicate a very power energy source. Most black holes are formed by exploding stars called supernovas. These events can be detected as gamma ray bursts.
Black holes emit a form of energy called Hawking radiation, which consists of particles being emitted from the black hole's event horizon. This radiation causes the black hole to slowly lose mass over time.
why is x-ray the leader of the book "Holes"
The black holes from Gamma ray usually burst because of their energetic form.
X-Ray
Greedy
They both have holes in them!!!
In the spin-off of this book, Small Steps, it says that X-Ray's real name is Rex Alvin Washburn.
In the story "Holes," Ray was misnamed "X-Ray" because he was not actually blind but instead had exceptional vision. This irony highlights the deceptive and tricky nature of the character.
Man Ray did.
the minor characters are x-ray
