Which of the following statements is true?

At shorter wavelengths, the electromagnetic wave is more energetic.

The amplitude in an electromagnetic wave is the distance from crest to crest.

At lower frequencies, the electromagnetic wave is more energetic.

Radio waves have a longer wavelength than visible radiation.

X-rays are more energetic than gamma rays.

The secondary radiation is that which:

Sale directly from the X-ray tube.

The one that disperses the patient plus the bremsstrahlung radiation.

The one generated inside the X-ray tube plus the one that is transmitted.

The one that disperses the patient plus the leakage radiation.

The leakage radiation plus the characteristic radiation.

The stochastic effect is one that:

It is presented at an equivalent dose of 5mSv.


The one who never shows up.

It is presented above 50 mSv.

It is one whose probability of appearing increases with the dose of radiation.
