Question
What is the primary source of gamma rays mentioned in the document?
Explanation
**Hertz experiment** used induction coil connected to two rods with gap, spark produced oscillating charge, emitted EM wave, received by loop with gap sparking when E induced, measured wavelength by standing wave, demonstrated EM wave properties, validating Maxwell. The document states that gamma rays are produced in nuclear reactions and emitted by radioactive nuclei. Using c = fλ, E₀/B₀ = c, I_d = ε₀ dΦ_E/dt, and spectrum classification λ = c/f, evaluation yields Nuclear reactions, illustrating EM wave transverse nature and Maxwell's displacement current concept.
