Physics-Chapter 11 electromagnetic waves

what are electromagnetic wave

Electromagnetic waves are waves of electromagnetic radiation that travel through space at the speed of light. They encompass a range of wavelengths and frequencies, including radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays.

what devices are radio waves used in

Radio waves are used in various devices such as radios, televisions, cell phones, and wireless communication systems.

what are the harmful effects of x-ray

X-rays can cause damage to living tissue and increase the risk of cancer due to their ionizing radiation. Prolonged exposure may lead to radiation sickness and genetic mutations.

out of all the waves in the electromagnetic wave spectrum( Radio waaves, Microwave, Infrared radiation, Visible lights, Ultraviolet radiation, X-rays , Gamma rays) which electromagnetic wave has the longest wave length

Radio wave has the longest wave length

out of all the waves in the electromagnetic wave spectrum( Radio waaves, Microwave, Infrared radiation, Visible lights, Ultraviolet radiation, X-rays , Gamma rays) which electromagnetic wave has the highest frequency

Gamma rays have the highest frequency in the electromagnetic spectrum, characterized by their short wavelengths and high energy.

out of all the waves in the electromagnetic wave spectrum( Radio waves,

Microwave, Infrared radiation, Visible lights, Ultraviolet radiation, X-rays , Gamma rays) which electromagnetic wave has the shortest frequency

Radio waves have the lowest frequency among electromagnetic waves, characterized by their long wavelengths and lower energy compared to others.
