Question

Wat Is The Wavelength Range Of X Rays

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

X-rays make up X-radiation, a form of high-energy electromagnetic radiation. Most X-rays have a wavelength ranging from 0.1 to 10 nanometres, corresponding to frequencies in the range 30 petahertz to 30 exahertz (3×1016 Hz to 3×1019 Hz) and energies in the range 100 eV to 200 keV. X-ray wavelengths are shorter than those of UV rays and typically longer than those of gamma rays. In many languages, X-radiation is referred to as Röntgen radiation, after the German scientist Wilhelm Röntgen, who discovered it on November 8, 1895.He named it X-radiation to signify an unknown type of radiation.Spellings of X-ray(s) in English include the variants x-ray(s), xray(s), and X ray(s).
