Answer:
Gamma-rays have the smallest wavelengths and the most energy of any other wave in the electromagnetic spectrum. These waves are generated by radioactive atoms and in nuclear explosions.
Explanation:
Gamma-rays can kill living cells, a fact which medicine uses to its advantage, using gamma-rays to kill cancerous cells.

The correct answer is D) The closet point in the Moon's orbit to Earth
This does not refer to the Moon only. It refers to any satellite and to its closest point to Earth.
The question is incomplete. I can help you by adding the information missing. They want you to calculate a) the radius of the cyclotron orbit for an electron with speed 1.0 * 10^6 m/s^2 and b) the radius of a cyclotron orbit for a proton with speed 5.0 * 10^4 m/s.
The two tasks involve combining the equations of the magnectic force and the centripetal force in a circular motion.
When you do that, you will obtain an expression to find the radius of the circular motion, which is the radius of the cyclotron that impulses the particles.
a)
Magentic force, F = q*v*B
q is the charge of the electron = 1.6 * 10^ -19 C
v is the speed = 1.0 * 10 ^ 6 m/s
B is the magentic field = 5.0 * 10 ^-5 T
Centripetal force, F = m*Ac = m * v^2 / R
where,
Ac = centripetal acceleration
m = mass of the electron = 9.11 * 10 ^-31 kg
R = the radius of the orbit
Now equal the two forces: q*v*B = m * v^2 / R => R = m*v / (q*B)
=> R = (9.11 * 10^31 kg) (1.0*10^6m/s) / [ (1.6 * 10^-19C)* (5.0 * 10^-5T) ]
=> R = 0.114 m
b) The equations are the same, just now use the speed, charge and mass of the proton instead of those of the electron.
R = m*v / (qB) = (1.66*10^-27 kg)(5.0*10^4 m/s) / [(1.6*10^-19C)(5*10^-5T)]
=> R = 10.4 m
