They are electromagnetic radiations like X-rays having very short wavelength, in the range of 10 -10 m to 10 -13 m. They affect photographic plate. They are unaffected by electric and magnetic fields. Their ionizing power is low, (about one hundredth of b - particles). T..

X-Rays - In 1895, Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen, a German physicist observed, while doing some experiments with the discharge tube, that when cathode rays are allowed to fall on a metal target called anticathode placed in their path, a new kind of rays are produced. These ra..

X-ray Radiography - X-rays and scanners help doctors to learn a great deal about the body as they reveal defects and abnormalities and thus contribute to diagnosis. It was in 1895, a German Physicist, Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen discovered the X-rays and since then radiolo..

X-rays and scanners help doctors to learn a great deal about the body as they reveal defects and abnormalities and thus contribute to diagnosis. It was in 1895, a German Physicist, Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen discovered the X-rays and since then radiology has played a major role in ..

They travel in straight lines. They remain undisturbed in an electric as well as magnetic field. They can pass through opaque objects such as black paper. They can affect a photographic plate. They are, in fact, electromagnetic waves of very short wavelengt..

They are not deflected by electric and magnetic fields. They affect photographic plates. The ionising power is very low compared to alpha-particles and beta-particles. They are electromagnetic waves like X-rays and light rays. The wavelength of these rays ar..
