Which of the following statements is not true of gamma radiation? A) Gamma rays have no mass. B) Gamma rays severely damage living cells. C) Gamma rays are high frequency electromagnetic waves. D) Gamma rays are deflected toward the positive terminal in a magnetic field.

Respuesta :

the statement that is not true of gamma radiation is  : D. Gamma rays are deflected toward the positive terminal in a magnetic field

Gamma rays will be deflected straight to both negative and positive ways in a magnetic field

hope this helps

Answer:

Gamma rays are deflected toward the positive terminal in a magnetic field.

Explanation:

Gamma rays have no mass and no charge. so if they are passed through any field, they will not deflect either towards positive terminal or negative terminal. It will go straight.

The gamma rays are shortest wavelength electromangetic waves, so they have high energy and thus can damage severely living cells, if come in contact with it.
