Best Answer

Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency) = 299,000,000 / 5 = 59,800,000 meters = about 37,000 miles

This is no X-ray. It's a longer wavelength (lower frequency) than any electrical signal we generate

for any purpose.

The longest wavelength that's called an X-ray is in the neighborhood of 0.00000001 meter.

Its frequency is 30,000,000,000,000,000 Hz.

What is the antonym for xray?

There is no antonym. An xray is a wavelength. There is no opposite.


Explain the effects on frequency wavelength and energy as you move across the spectrum?

E=hv where E=energy v=frequency v=Planck's constant as you move further towards the xray side, frequency and energy increase.


Does the intensity of Xrays and gamma rays differ?

Intensity is independent of frequency or wavelength. So whether it is Xray or gamma ray both can have the same intensity.


Why are the colors in the electromagnetic spectrum put in that order?

Which has more energy an infrared or xray photon?

An X-ray proton. This is so because the x-ray has much higher frequency and shorter waves.


What is the wavelength of an xray?

In general, X-rays have a wavelength of between 10 and 0.01 nanometers. That's between 10-8 and 10-11 meters. Remember that a shorter wavelength means a higher frequency, and, therefore, higher energy. The frequency range of X-rays is 30 petahertz to 30 exahertz (30 x 1015 Hz to 30 x 1018 Hz) and they have energies in the 120 eV to 120 keV range. (An eV is an electron volt.) Note that X-rays are of shorter wavelength than visible light, but not as short as gamma rays.
