MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION
30 sec • 1 pt
Electromagnetic waves vary in their energy depending on their frequency and wavelength. Waves with higher frequencies have more energy. Infrared rays have longer wavelengths than visible light, so they carry less energy. X-rays and gamma rays have much higher frequencies and can penetrate materials that visible light cannot. This is why they are used in medical imaging, but they can also be harmful if not used carefully.
A. Infrared rays have more energy than X-rays.
B. X-rays can penetrate materials because they have higher energy.
C. Visible light has a higher frequency than gamma rays.
D. X-rays are completely safe for unlimited exposure.
