X-rays are high energy waves which have a great penetrating power and are used extensively in medical
applications and in inspecting welds. Another familiar X-ray machine is the baggage scanner found at airport
terminals.

Gamma rays are generated by radioactive atoms and in nuclear explosions, and are used in many medical
applications. They are more penetrating than X-rays.

Uses and sources of EM waves

Radio waves
Sources: Sparks or alternating current cause a radio antenna to oscillated the atoms within it to the
correct frequency.
CHARACTERISTICS OF EM WAVES
Size scale: mountain buildings
 Radio
 Television Oscillating in electric circuits.
 Mobile phones
 Magnetic resonance imaging

Microwaves
Sources: Atoms or molecules are oscillated within klystron and magnetron tubes.
 Cooking Oscillating in electric circuits.
 Long distance communication radar
 Terrain mapping

Infrared – Discovered by William Hershel.

Sources: Oscillation of atoms or molecules due to the absorption of heat energy.
 Heating and drying
 Night-vision cameras Vibration of atoms within molecules;
 Remote controls molecular vibration in solids
 Satellite remote sensing

Visible light – the light that is visible to Human eye.

Sources: Oscillate due to heat energy or electron transitions within an atom.
Size scale: bacteria
Motion of electrons in atoms
 What a typical eye and film can see

Ultraviolet
Sources: Electron transitions within an atom.
Size scale: viruses
 Photo chemicals Motion of electrons in atoms
 Photoelectric effects
 Hardening cast in medicine

X-rays
Sources: Electron transition or braking
Size scale: atoms
 Medicine Rapid acceleration or deceleration of charged
 Crystallography particles
 Astrophysics
 Remote sensing

Gamma rays
Sources: Nuclear transitions
Size scale: nuclei
Nuclear reactions, radioactive disintegration
 Nuclear research
 Geophysics
 Mineral exploration
