Explanation / Answer

multiple questions allowed to solve only 1 question with four sub parts.

1)  X-rays can be produced in transitions involving inner electrons in an atom.

answer ================true ) they can be produced in transitions involving inner electrons.

2) gamma rays travel in vacuum at the same speed as the visible light

answer ================true) all electromagnetic waves travel with same speed.

3) The sun's radiation is most intense in the infrared region.=====false

reason : most intense are visibe and UV spectrum.

4) A vertical automobile antenna is sensitive to electric fields polarized vertically. =======true

reason : if not then the atoms of the antenna have to move too far to catch the signal.
