PLEASE HELP
zysi [14]
Gamma ray photons carry more energy than photons of any other wavelength. You can't actually use the illustration to answer the question, because it doesn't say anything anywhere about energy. Still, i'm glad that you did include the illustration, and that i was able to see it, and now I can give you even more help: The illustration has several problems and outright errors. Don't spend too much time trying to learn stuff from it.
