उत्तर
Gamma rays
Explanation:
The electromagnetic spectrum is the dispersion of electromagnetic radiation based on energy. Gamma rays, x-rays, ultraviolet, visible, infrared, microwaves, and radio waves are the seven main categories that it falls under. These zones are given in decreasing energy and frequency and rising wavelength order. Among the main types of electromagnetic radiation, gamma waves have the highest frequencies (most energetic) and shortest wavelengths, whereas radio waves have the lowest frequencies (least energetic) and longest wavelengths. Therefore, the smallest wavelength is that of gamma rays.

The figure shows the intensity-wavelength relations of X-rays coming from two different Coolidge tubes. The solid curve represents the relation for the tube A in which the potential difference between the target and the filament is VA and the atomic number of the target material is ZA. These quantities are VB and ZB for the other tube. Then,
