-- Gamma rays are harmful to living organisms because each gamma-ray photon
carries relatively high energy, and is capable of damaging cells.
-- You should be suspicious of whoever told you that microwave radiation is not
harmful to humans. Have you ever seen what 1,200 watts of RF at 2.5 GHz can do
to a hot dog in the 'microwave' oven ?
What else can I help you with?
What is the correct order for the electromagnetic spectrum starting with gamma rays?
Gamma, X-Ray, Ultraviolet, Visible, Infrared, Microwaves, and then Radio waves. (from smallest to largest)
What form of ionizing radiatin can penetrate deeply into body tissue?
Gamma radiation, X Rays
What are the regions of electromagnetic spectrum?
Radio waves, Radar, Microwaves, Infared, Ultraviolet, X-rays, and Gamma Rays
What type of electromagnetic wave has a lower frequency than microwaves?
No. Both are examples of electromagnetic radiation. The only difference between them is their respective frequencies (wavelengths). Both travel at the speed that we call the "speed of light" . . . 300,000,000 meters (186,282 miles) per second.
What are the main categories of the electromagnetic spectrum?
short radio waves, long radio waves, microwaves, infrared rays, visible light, ultraviolet rays, x-rays, and gamma rays.
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.
How the period and frequency of electromagnetic waves change between gamma rays and microwaves?
Gamma rays have a shorter wavelength and higher frequency compared to microwaves. This means that gamma rays have a higher frequency and shorter period than microwaves. As you move from gamma rays to microwaves, the period of the electromagnetic waves increases while the frequency decreases.
What waves have shorter wavelength's than microwaves?
X-rays and gamma rays have shorter wavelengths than microwaves.
Does green light produce microwaves or gamma rays?
no
What is the correct order for the electromagnetic spectrum starting with gamma rays?
Gamma, X-Ray, Ultraviolet, Visible, Infrared, Microwaves, and then Radio waves. (from smallest to largest)
What form of ionizing radiatin can penetrate deeply into body tissue?
Gamma radiation, X Rays
What are the 7 types of radiant energy?
Gamma rays- X-rays- Ultra voilet rays- Visable light- Infared rays- Microwaves- Radio Waves-
What kills harmful bacteria in food gamma rays or x-rays?
Gamma ray
Types of electromagnetic energy from least energetic to most energetic?
microwaves < infrared < visible < ultraviolet < x-rays < gamma rays .
Are Gamma rays harmful to earth?
Gamma rays are not necessarily harmful to the planet Earth, but to all the living organisms that inhabit it, as Gamma is a powerful form of radiation.
List the eletromagnetic spectrum in order from longest wavelength to the shortest wavelength?
radiowaves, microwaves, infra-red, visible, ultraviolet, x-rays, gamma rays
