the waves travelling with velocity of light and consisting of oscillating electric and magnetic fields perpendicular to each other and also perpendicular to the direction of their propagation are called electromagnetic waves.such waves with different ranges of frequency constitute an electromagnetic spectrum.
these electromagnetic waves are classified in to different types depending on their wavelenth they are
The two main divisions are ionising radiation and non-ionising radiation.
Long wave radiation and radiation with wavelengths longer than at the top of the visible spectrum is non-ionising, which means that photons of the radiation are not energetic enough to break down moloecules. These include radio waves of all kinds, infra red and visible light. Living organisms can be damaged by non-ionising radiation only by the heat that can be produced when the radiation is too intense.
Starting with ultra-violet and shorter wavelengths, individual photons have enough energy to alter the structure of molecules. For example if an electron gets knocked off an atom the atom becomes ionised, so this type of radiation is described as ionising. When it is used for x-rays, precautions must be taken by the operators to avoid a too-high dosage because ionising radiation can produce cancer.
Electromagnetic energy feilds are known as a human energy feilds.
I don't know what energys are found in the electromagnetic spectrum will somebody please help me
Gamma, X-Ray, Ultraviolet, Visible Light, Infrared, Microwave, Radio
Practically all of it, but some bands are more efficient than others.
UV light energy
the sun
Gamma rays
Radiant energy in the electromagnetic spectrum. Matter in the form of charged, uncharged and massless particles
no
There are seven types of electromagnetic waves and they are: 1. Radio waves 2. Microwaves 3. Infra-red waves 4. (visible) Light waves 5. Ultra-violet waves 6. X-ray waves 7. Gamma rays
electromagnetic radiation includes all types of the electromagnetic spectrum
The electromagnetic spectrum organizes different types of electromagnetic waves according to their wavelength or frequency.

Different types of electromagnetic waves have different frequencies; different wavelengths; and different energies per photon.
By frequency on the electromagnetic spectrum
Electromagnetic waves are classified according to their wavelength and frequency and this classification is called electromagnetic spectrum.
the wave length
light and the electromagnetic spectrum
The waves are called "electromagnetic waves". All types of EM waves can be used to study the Universe.
