Question
Write a short note on Gamma rays.

Answer

$\rightarrow $ Frequency of the Gamma rays is the highest in the electro magnetic spectrum.
$\rightarrow $ Wave length range from $10^{-10} m$ to less than $10^{-14} m.$
$\rightarrow $ This high frequency radiation is produced in nuclear reactions and also emitted by radio active nuclei.
$\rightarrow $ They are used in medicine to destroy cancer cells.
