Gamma rays are produced by applying ___________

A.) electric and magnetic fields at right angles to each other
B.) electric and magnetic fields parallel to each other
C.) crests and troughs at right angles to each other
D.) crests and troughs parallel to each other

Respuesta :

Gamma rays are produced by applying electric and magnetic fields at right angles to each other. It is in the range of the spectrum which is beyond he soft X-rays. Gamma radiation can cause damage to living tissues which makes it useful to kill cancer cells.

The answer would be letter B.

Answer;

A.) electric and magnetic fields at right angles to each other

Explanation;

  • Gamma rays are electromagnetic waves that are part of the electromagnetic spectrum with the lowest wavelength and highest frequency.
  • Gamma rays are type of a radioactive rays that are produced by the hottest and most energetic objects such as supernova explosions.
  • Gamma rays are not deflected by either magnetic field or electric field because they have no electrical charge that are associated with them.  Additionally, gamma rays have no mass.
