higher \n\nX-rays are a high-energy type of electromagnetic (EM) radiation. X-ray radiation has a much shorter wavelength than visible light, so X-ray photons have much higher energies than photons of light.

Energy= Mass times the speed of light squared... It is the relationship of mass to energy. And it expalins the potential of fizzile material in atomic weapons (thermonuclear H bomvs) are more efficeint.

light.\n\nlet me refer you to e=mc2...light has mass energy and inertia.\na light is a wave and a particle.\nIt is in motion, and objects in motion have inertia and thusly power.\n\nThe true absence of light would exist in a vacuum. There is no pwer in a true vacuum. Even if the absence of light was "massive", that word you chose is a relative term, which is to say that massive CAN NOT imply mass, inertia, etc. The absence of light is NOT measurable because there is nothing there to exist.

First, read more about the wave-particle duality. Yes, light is more than just a photon or a "single ray", it comes in waves. But the energy packets are in discrete bundles or quanta ---> which leads us into quantum mechanics. This all arose from the blackbody radiation problem, where radiation could be modelled as oscillators, thus Plancks constant is of units Joules*second or Energy per frequency. And as you said, if Plancks was energy per frequency, why isnt the energy of a photon numerically the same? You are implicitly assuming time is a non-factor or time is perfectly "1" second, but the light has a frequency characteristic to its color/wavelength. And once again, we're back at light is a photon AND a wave.

I'd say option B. Each photon contains one fragment of the image. But actually, there are no such things as photon particles. The "waves" that "photon particles" create are actually part of the photon themselves.

I could not understand what did you mean by 'as such'! But, gamma rays are also photons and if certain conditions (conservation theorems, energy requirements) are satisfied, they could undergo the process of pair-production whereby they could be converted into electron-positron pairs (an experimentally observed fact).\n \nPair-production occurs when a 1.022 MeV gamma-photon interacts with a heavy atomic nucleus, and produces an electron and a positron without violating conservation of momentum. Pair production cannot occur in empty space out of a single photon because the momentum of the initial photon must be absorbed by something, and the heavy nucleus is thus required to conserve both momentum and energy. The energy of the photon 1.022 MeV, as described above, is the total energy of twice the electron mass (according to E = mc^2). Indeed energy is being converted into mass in this process!

lighter....UV rays and the vitamins that the rays contain

In electromagnetic radiation, the lower the frequency, the lower the energy (per photon).  So, radio frequencies have the lowest energy photons.

Its the frequency/wavelength.\n\nThe "energy" of an EM wave is in its photons.  Each photon\nhas energy of hf, where h is Plank's constant and f is the freq.\nSince Xrays are higher freq than microwaves or light waves, they\ncarry more energy.

Photons.\n\nI've heard of wavicles, but I think that sounds like a frozen dessert.

It is how fast light travels. It varies depending on the medium it is going through. The denser the medium, the slower it travels.\n\nIt is possible for radiation to travel faster than light through a medium, I think it is called Korentkov radiation or something like that.\n\nBut the upper limit, based on Einstein's "C" constant is about 186,000 miles per second or 300 million km per hour

Actually, x-rays films are also very senstive to light. Light is what is actually used to expose the film to the image. \nIf an x-ray film was only senstive to x-rays they a patient would require a very high dose of radiation in order to produce an image (this is how it was done in the 1950's).\nToday we have these deveices called Intensifying Screens. The x-rays hit the intensifying screens and then give off light to make the image on the film (this helps to decrease the dose of radiation that that patient will be exposed to because the screens take each xray photon and multiple it by a lot.)\n\nAnd now to how x-ray film is developed.\n1963 to 1993 \n\nIn 1963 when I was first introduced to the X-ray business, film processors were really in their infancy. When I talk about "X-ray film processors", I mean those devices that were automated in some fashion, and the processing of film was taken out of the hands of the X-ray technician. \n\nThe first Hospital that I walked into with the man that was assigned to train me, had probably one of the first X-ray film processors in the St. Paul, Minneapolis, Minnesota area. It was a Kodak M1 or M2 processor. It was more than 8 feet long, and took 10 to 15 minutes to process a film from "dry to dry". The roller racks in the processor were so large that a "traveling" crane was attached to the ceiling to lift the racks out of the processing fluid tanks. The crane was designed to move up and down the line of travel in order to lift one or another of the racks out of the tanks. It could then be moved to lower the rack at the side of the processor where the rack could be cleaned. These roller racks allowed the film to travel in a somewhat vertical fashion, down and up, through the chemistries. The film would be fed into the rack and follow a "turn-around" which would direct the film down into the bath, traveling through the rollers. Than the film would be directed through a turn around at the bottom of the rack and brought back up to be sent over to the next rack. This was the beginning of automated film processing. I would say that the Kodak company was the father of the automated processor. There could have been others that were there 1st, but I didn't know about them. \n\nOther companies came on line soon after, but Kodak (I think) still dominates the market with its processor line. \n\nI think a step back in time, is in order to look at what the X-ray technician had to do before the automated processor became popular. \n\nThe dark room consisted of 2 or 3 tanks that were filled with chemistry. The tanks were than contained in a massive tank filled with tempered water. The water was constantly circulating and replaced as it drained out, at a controlled temperature, usually 68 degrees F. This arrangement kept the chemistry at the required temperature, so that the films could come out with very little variation in density, contrast, fog, (Etc.). The tanks were arranged so that the developer chemistry was at one end, with a "Stop" bath (sometimes) next, than the fixer chemistry, and sometimes a tank was used for the wash bath. Fixer chemistries were later changed to contain the "stop" action needed to stop development. This did away with the stop bath portion of the system. Usually the wash was done in the master water tank where the circulating water would aid in washing the film. \n\nIn this system, the film in a special holder, would be placed in the developer tank for a specified time (5 minutes more or less). Than the film was moved to the stop bath, if the system used one, or moved into the fixer tank for 10 or more minutes. Then the film was moved into the wash where it could be left for up to 20 minutes. After that the film was moved into a tall heated drying rack which looked like a large clothes locker. Depending on temperature the film would be dry in 15 to 20 minutes. \n\nCan you imagine? Some thing had to be done

I would also say the answer is photon.

Mass and energy are different, but can be converted from one to the other. In the sun, nuclear reactions are continually converting small amounts of mass into large amounts of energy, which is light in all forms (from radio waves, through visible light, to gamma rays).\n\nPhotons are a pure form of energy, packets of electromagnetic radiation (sinusoidal electric and magnetic field waves travelling perpendicular to each other), that have no REST mass, but have momentum as they are travelling at the speed of light. This is what allows them to push solar sails.

Yes. Rays? yes, that too... but mainly becuase of eyes intense light for fairly long time. Objects moving continuously. With tube-type TVs some X-ray is also emitted.

X-ray is an electromagnetic wave.it means that its energy is proportional to its frequency. when an electromagnetic wave collides to a material several phenomena occur.one of them is absorption.the amount of absorption depend on mass absorption coefficient and thickness of material.as density increase , this coefficient will increase and energy of transmitted beam  decrease.  \nX-ray has very high frequency (very high energy) that is harmful for human tissue.consequently lead outfit or barriers is used to absorb high fraction energy of x-ray beam. lead density=11  mean mass absorption=340\ncompare with Aluminum density=2.7   mean mass absorption=77

Energy = mass times the speed of light squared\n\nIt conveys that a very small amount of matter actually represents/can be turned into a very large amount of energy, as in nuclear power, or a nuclear explosion.
