Which statements best describe x-rays? check all that apply. x-rays are electromagnetic waves. x-rays are longitudinal waves. x-rays are mechanical waves. x-rays are transverse waves. x-rays travel at the speed of light. x-rays travel at the speed of sound.

X ray is one of the electromagnetic waves.

As per Clark Maxwell's electromagnetic theory, all the electromagnetic waves move with the velocity of light i.e c= 3×10^8 m/s

In case of electromagnetic waves,the electric field and magnetic field are perpendicular to each other as well as perpendicular to the direction of propagation.The electromagnetic waves exhibit the property of polarisation. Hence they are transverse in nature.

Hence the best statements about X- ray will be-

1- X -rays are electromagnetic waves

2-X-rays are transverse transverse waves

3- X- rays travel at the speed of light.
