X-rays are form of electromagnetic radiations, similar to visible light(400nm-900nm). In electromagnetic spectrum it lies on the left side of visible spectrum and their wavelength(0.1nm-10nm) is shorter than visible light therefore they have much energy and resolving power and are used o see small objects. As, they have higher energy they can pass through objects and therefore they have found their use in different field of life such as engineering works to check cracks in buildings and bridges.
Use in medical field to diagnose fractures |
