Gamma ray
Gamma ray is not a particle. It is a form of electromagnetic radiation.
The discovery of Compton scattering is the phenomenon where incoming gamma rays collide with electrons, resulting in a shift in the gamma ray's wavelength. This discovery helped confirm the wave-particle duality of light and demonstrated the particle nature of light.
No. At least, I don't think it's reasonable to assume that. The reason it won't work is that, while a gamma ray is still an electromagnetic wave (just like a radio wave is), the wavelength of a gamma ray pulse is extremely short compared to the grid size of a Faraday cage, or even of the individual atoms.
False. A gamma ray is a high-energy electromagnetic wave rather than a particle. It is neutral and has no charge.
A gamma ray is an electromagnetic wave. It has the highest frequency (and energy) as well as the shortest wavelength on any wave on the electromagnetic spectrum.

Radiowave is nonionizing while gamma ray is ionizing.
A gamma ray is a type of electromagnetic wave that has the highest frequency and energy in the electromagnetic spectrum. It is a form of ionizing radiation.
No, a gamma wave is not a mechanical wave. Gamma waves are a type of electromagnetic radiation with very high frequency and energy. They are often associated with nuclear reactions and subatomic particles.

Gamma rays are gamma rays are gamma rays.
Gamma rays have the shortest wavelength. Electromagnetic wave is a kind of energy being propagated even through free space (vacuum). It is classified based on the mode of producing it as Radio waves, micro waves, infra red, visible, ultra violet, X-ray and Gamma ray. Out of these seven, radio waves have the lowest frequency and Gamma ray has the highest frequency. As frequency and wavelength are inversely related, radio wave would have the longest wavelength.
Gamma ray is not a particle. It is a form of electromagnetic radiation.
No. Though both are electromagnetic waves.
A gamma ray might have a good chance of going right through the X-ray machine. Remember that the X-ray machine creates X-rays and not gamma rays to perform its function.
