Having successfully ransomed a nearby city with her rail gun, Prof. Marcia Grail is looking for new and exciting ways to wreck science based havok for profit. She constructs a device capable of creating a constant intensity of electromagnetic radiation of any frequency over a circular space of radius 50cm. In order to do the most damage to biological systems (e.g. make those filthy normal humans pay), what type of electromagnetic wave does she need to set the device for? Will these waves travel faster or slower than waves with a shorter wavelength (explain your answer)?

Answer #1

Gamma rays are the high intensed rays so these are Harmful to human body.

these rays frequency is highest frequency like 3 X 1022 Hz to 3 X 1018 Hz

and

here using E = h

h = Planck's constant = 6.67 X 10-34 J.s

= frequency of Gamma rays

and also all of the Electromagnetic ways are having same speed in the vaccum or in air.

that is the speed of the air is C = 3 X 108 m/s.

No matter or Object or Any thing which doesnot have an extravelocity than air..

that is the speed of the air is C = 3 X 108 m/s.
