Name the rays or waves of wavelength nearly
Name the rays or waves of wavelength nearly \( 0.1 n m \)
- A. IR rays
- B. UV rays
- C. Gamma rays
- D. x-rays
Step-by-step solution
Wavelength of 0.1 nm corresponds to 1 Å, which lies in the X-ray region of the electromagnetic spectrum (typically 0.01 nm to 10 nm). UV rays are longer (10–400 nm), IR rays are longer (700 nm–1 mm), and gamma rays are shorter (< 0.01 nm). Therefore, X-rays are correct.
