Why are x-rays and gamma rays dangerous?
X-rays and gamma rays are dangerous because they are forms of ionizing radiation, which means they have enough energy to remove electrons from atoms and damage cells. This can lead to DNA mutations, radiation sickness, and an increased risk of cancer. Prolonged exposure to high doses of these rays can be harmful to human health.
What is more dangerous gamma or alpha rays?
alpha radiation is more dangerous than beta or gamma if ingested or inhaled because its power to ionize (or to disrupt atoms) is 20x than that of beta and gamma. but if the source is outside the body or at a distance gamma radiation is much dangerous because it could penetrate thick walls.
Why gamma rays cosidered the most dangerous EM?
Gamma rays are considered the most dangerous type of electromagnetic radiation because they have the highest energy and can penetrate deep into body tissues, causing damage to cells and DNA. In large doses, gamma rays can cause acute radiation sickness, cancer, and even death. Protection from gamma rays typically involves shielding with dense materials like lead or concrete.
What is the most dangerous radiation and how can it be harmful to living organisms?
The most dangerous radiation is ionizing radiation, which includes gamma rays, X-rays, and some types of ultraviolet radiation. Ionizing radiation can harm living organisms by damaging cells and DNA, leading to mutations, cancer, and other health problems.
Why can nuclear reactors be dangerous?
Nuclear reactors are dangerous because they emit ionizing radiation that damages the body. Nuclear reactors rely on fission so when the atom splits Uranium or Plutonium emits alpha particles, beta particles, x-rays, and gama rays. The most "dangerous" is gamma rays since they can cross though anything but layers of concrete and/lead
Are infrared rays dangerous?

Are gamma rays more dangerous than x rays?
Yes, of course.
Do gamma rays or x-rays have lower energy?
X-rays have lower energy, though they are both dangerous.

What blocks the dangerous rays of the sun that cause skin cancer?
what blocks some of the dangerous rays that may cause skin cancer
Which rays are more dangerous infrasonics or ultrasonics?
Ultra
What are the dangerous rays that harms ozone layer?
No dangerous rays harm the ozone layer. CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) harm the ozone layer. The ozone layer actually protects us and theearth from dangerous ultraviolet radiation.
What blocks dangerous rays from giving us skin cance?
well theres suncream blocks dangerous rays The rays are called uv rays and directed from the sun if u stay too long out in the sun you could either get sun burnt or skin cancer
