X-rays find application in medical scenarios for generating images of bones, tissues, and organs. While X-rays can penetrate tissues like skin, their ability to penetrate bone is comparatively lower. This property of X-rays is attributed to which characteristic of the rays?(1 point) Responses their small amplitudes their small amplitudes their short wavelengths their short wavelengths their long wavelengths their long wavelengths their large amplitudes
The correct answer is: their short wavelengths. X-rays have short wavelengths, which allow them to penetrate through soft tissues like skin but have difficulty in penetrating denser materials like bones.
