- 2. the process of x-rays and gamma rays knocking electrons out of atoms.
- 3. this type of radiation causes sunburn.
- 5. the oscillations are perpendicular to the direction in which this wave transfers energy.
- 8. the oscillations of this wave are parallel to the direction in which the waves transfer energy.
