All electromagnetic waves move at the same speed, at least in vacuum.
X-rays and microwaves ... as well as radio, infrared, ultraviolet, heat, and
visible light ... are all electromagnetic waves, and travel at the same speed.
As long as the x-ray and the microwave are in the same medium, they're both traveling at the same speed. So are radio waves, TV waves, heat waves, and every color of visible light.
A microwave has a higher wavelength than an X-ray. Microwaves typically have wavelengths in the range of centimeters to millimeters, while X-rays have wavelengths in the range of picometers to nanometers.
X-rays and microwaves are both forms of electromagnetic radiation. They both have wavelengths that fall within the electromagnetic spectrum. They are also used in various applications such as medical imaging for X-rays and cooking in the case of microwaves.
X-ray LED technology in medical imaging offers benefits such as improved image quality, reduced radiation exposure, faster imaging times, and enhanced diagnostic capabilities.

No it uses x rays
No, an X-ray is not a mechanical wave. An X-ray is an electromagnetic wave. However, in polar molecules, an X-ray can cause the molecule to vibrate rapidly, just like a microwave oven can.
From that list, microwaves have the longest wavelength. Those four items would be arranged by wavelength like this: - Gamma ray (shortest) - X-ray - Visible light - Microwave (longest)

The speed of X-ray in vacuum is the same as the speed of radio, microwave, light, heat, infrared, and ultraviolet: 299,792,458 meters (186,282 miles) per second.
No.
X-rays require the most energy to generate out of the options listed (microwave, blue light, x-ray, ultraviolet light). X-rays have higher energy photons compared to microwave, blue light, and ultraviolet light.
