  • Yes, Gamma rays can pass through a metal sheet.
  • Gamma rays are the most penetrating of the radiations.
  • Gamma rays are highly energetic waves.
  • It cannot be said that a particular thickness of a material can absorb all gamma radiation.
  • Many centimeters of lead or many meters of concrete are required to absorb high levels of gamma rays.
