Which of the following electromagnetic waves is used in medicine to destroy cancer cell?
Gamma rays are dominantly used in medicines to destroy the cells that are cancer affected. The gamma rays are chosen such that its energy does not harm the healthy cells. Therefore, the rays used in medicine to destroy cancer cells are Gamma rays.
A. wavelength of microwave is greater than that of ultraviolet rays. B. The wave length of infrared rays is lesser than that of ultraviolet rays. C. wavelength of microwave is lesser than that of ultraviolet rays D. Gamma rays has shortest wavelength in the electromagnetic spectrum. Choose the correct option from the given options.
If $$v_{g}, v_{x}$$, and $$v_{m}$$ are speeds of gamma rays, $$X$$ rays, and microwaves respectively in vacuum, then:
