Solution

The correct option is B False
  1. X-rays belong to the electromagnetic spectrum.
  2. They travel in straight lines (like light); this is known as rectilinear propagation. X-rays travel at the speed of light.
  3. There is variation in the wavelength and frequency of different waves, but the speed is the same as that of light.

Hence the given statement is false.
