MCQ
Which is the frequency range of gamma rays from the following?
  • A
    1 × 1018 to 3 × 1022 Hz
  • B
    3 × 10-18 to 5 × 1022 Hz
  • C
    3 × 1018 to 5 × 1022 Hz
  • D
    3 × 10-18 to 5 × 10-22 Hz

Answer

  1. 3 × 1018 to 5 × 1022 Hz

Explanation:

The frequency range of Gamma rays is 3 × 1018 to 5 × 1022 Hz. These rays have a wavelength of 6 × 10-13 to 10-10m. Gamma rays are produced in nuclear reactions and are also emitted by radioactive nuclei.
