Read moreWhat are the main characteristics of X-rays?
The defining characteristics of X-rays—their ability to penetrate optically opaque materials, their wavelengths of atomic dimension, the high energy of individual X-ray photons —lead to a wide range of industrial, medical, and scientific applications.

Read moreDo X-rays have high or low energy?
X-rays are a high-energy type of electromagnetic (EM) radiation. X-ray radiation has a much shorter wavelength than visible light, so X-ray photons have much higher energies than photons of light. X-rays lie between ultraviolet “light” and gamma rays on the electromagnetic spectrum.13 Tem 2005
Read moreWhat is the wavelength of X-rays?
X-rays are part of the electromagnetic spectrum (wavelength is given in angstroms). X-rays have a wavelength in the range of 0.01–10 nm , corresponding to frequencies in the range of 3×1016–3×1019 Hz and energies in the range of 100 eV to 100 keV. They are shorter in wavelength than UV rays and longer than gamma rays.
Read moreWhat rays have the highest wavelength?
Radio waves, infrared rays, visible light, ultraviolet rays, X-rays, and gamma rays are all types of electromagnetic radiation. Radio waves have the longest wavelength, and gamma rays have the shortest wavelength.
