X-rays are electromagnetic waves that can penetrate skin, but not bone. In hospitals, X-rays are used to produce images of bones. How do X-rays compare to visible light? A. X-rays have a higher frequency and carry more energy than visible light. B. X-rays have a higher frequency and carry less energy than visible light. C. Visible light has a higher frequency and carries more energy than X-rays. D. Visible light has a higher frequency and carries less energy than X-rays.

A. X-rays have a higher frequency and carry more energy than visible light.

Explanation:

A. X-rays have a higher frequency and carry more energy than visible light

Explanation:

Both x-rays and visible light are electromagnetic waves.

The amount of energy carried by an electromagnetic wave depends on the frequency of the wave. The frequency of x-rays is greater than that of visible light, so the energy carried by x-rays is also greater than that of visible light. The high frequency of x-rays allows them to penetrate skin, but they are absorbed by bone, which allows an image of the bone to be produced.

answer is: naturally occurring solid, inorganic compound or element is mineral.

minerals usually have crystalline form, that means than crystal constituents (atoms, molecules or ions) are arranged in a highly ordered microscopic structure, forming a crystal lattice that extends in all directions.

for example magnetite is a mineral of iron oxide (fe₂o₃).

calcite is a carbonate mineral and the most stable polymorph of calcium carbonate (caco₃).

dolomite is an   carbonate mineral composed of calcium magnesium carbonate (camg(co₃)₂).
