Red is about 405 to 480 THz
Orange from 480 to 515 THz
Yellow from 515 to 525 THz
Green from 525 to 575 THz
Cyan from 575 to 610 THz
Blue from 610 to 680 THz
Violet from 680 to 785 Tz

lower than that and your eye doesn't respond to it.

Which has the lowest frequency in the electromagnetic spectrum microwaves radio waves visible light or gamma rays?
Radio waves have the lowest frequency in all of the electromagnetic spectrum. The next higher frequency energy is microwave, visible light including ultraviolet, infrared, X-ray, then gamma ray
Which color of light in the visible spectrum has the highest energy?
Photons with higher energy correspond to electromagnetic radiation with higher frequency/shorter wavelength. In the visible band, the color with the highest frequency is the last one you can see on the VIOLET end of the spectrum.
Which band of the electromagnetic spectrum has a frequency higher than x-rays?
Gamma rays
As you move from the blue region of the electromagnetic spectrum to the red region of the electromagnetic spectrumwhat happens to the frequency of the light?
it gets higher.
Compare the frequency and energy of infrared rays to the frequency and energy of visible light?
Infrared waves are shorter than radio waves and longer than visible light waves.

Photons with higher energy correspond to electromagnetic radiation with higher frequency/shorter wavelength. In the visible band, the color with the highest frequency is the last one you can see on the VIOLET end of the spectrum.
Does Infra red or yellow light have a higher frequency?
No, infrared radiation (IR) does not have a higher frequency than visible light. Visible light is above IR on the electromagnetic spectrum. It (visible light) has higher frequency and shorter wavelengths than IR radiation does.
Electromagnetic radiation and what is called ultraviolet light?
EM radiation higher in frequency than violet visible light but lower in frequency than soft x-rays.
How do the waves of the electromagnetic spectrum differ?
In the spectrum of electromagnetic radiation the wave property that changes is the frequency. So for example xrays have higher frequency then blue light which has higher frequency then red light which has higher frequency then radio waves etc.
Where on the electromagnetic spectrum is visible light?
Higher frequency than infrared, but lower than ultraviolet, in otherwords in the middle
Which band of the electromagnetic spectrum has a frequency higher than x-rays?
Gamma rays
Do microwaves have the highest frequency?
No. Several other electromagnetic waves - including visible light - have a higher frequency.
As you move from the blue region of the electromagnetic spectrum to the red region of the electromagnetic spectrumwhat happens to the frequency of the light?
it gets higher.
Are gamma ray used in lasers?
Conventional lasers do not emit gamma radiation. Lasers use electromagnetic waves in the visible spectrum; this is light that you can actually see. Gamma rays are electromagnetic waves with much more energy and much higher frequency than visible light.
Compare the frequency and energy of infrared rays to the frequency and energy of visible light?
Infrared waves are shorter than radio waves and longer than visible light waves.
Which color has a higher frequency?
In the visible-light portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, frequencies are lowest near red light (approaching infrared waves) and highest near violet light (approaching ultraviolet rays).
