The radio waves with the shortest wavelengths and highest frequencies are called what?
From longest wave length to shortest (least energy to most, lowest frequency to highest) the spectrum is: Radio & TV - Microwaves - Infrared - Visible Light - Ultraviolet - X-Rays - Gamma Rays
What is the difference between infrared waves and microwaves?
Microwaves are electromagnetic waves that occur on the EMR (Electromagnetic Radiation) scale above radio/tv waves and below infrared and visible light waves. They are used in cooking devices (microwave oven) and as carrier waves for cell phone and other communication devices. In other words, a "microwave" is a type of electromagnetic radiation (like visible light waves, tv waves and so on), and a "microwave oven" is a cooking device that uses microwaves to heat foods by stimulation of the water molecule.

Radio waves with wavelengths between 10cm and 1mm are called what?
No. Your cellphone, many TV stations, and the GPS satellites transmit wavelengths shorter than 1 meter. X-rays have wavelengths between 0.00000000001 and 0.00000001 meter. (1/100th of a nanometer to 10 nanometers)
Do satellites normally use microwaves or radio waves?
Microwaves are radio waves.Most satellites communicate in microwave radio frequency bands.
What wave viabrates faster radio wave or microwaves?
Microwaves ARE radio waves, with frequencies above 3 GHz.
What are some forms of radiation?
Visible light, radio, television and microwaves.
What are waves that are used in television?
Radio waves, microwaves, infrared and visible light can all be used for communication. Radio waves – are used to transmit television and radio programs. Microwaves – are used to transmit satellite television and for mobile phones. Infrared – is used to transmit information from remote controls.
Is microwaves are a type of infrared waves?
yes so is am fm radio and tv signals
Which has higher frequency microwaves or tv waves?
In the entire spectrum of electromagnetic waves, microwaves and radiowaves (microwaves are sometimes classified under radio waves), have the longest wavelengths, and the lowest frequencies (and therefore, energy).
What kind of wave are electromagnetic waves?
radio waves
The radio waves with the shortest wavelengths and highest frequencies are called what?
From longest wave length to shortest (least energy to most, lowest frequency to highest) the spectrum is: Radio & TV - Microwaves - Infrared - Visible Light - Ultraviolet - X-Rays - Gamma Rays
Which characteristic is common to microwaves radar waves and television waves?
Television waves are radar waves or radio waves simply because they are useful for long term communication and are readily reflected by the ionosphere. Microwaves are used for short term communication very rarely and for heating purposes. All three however travel at the same speed that is 299,792,468 m/s.
Which colours have the fastest speed?
Every color has the same speed. That speed is also the same as the speed of heat, radio, TV, microwaves, and X-rays.
Do radio waves x-rays microwaves and the sun's waves have anything in common?
they are all rays
What are three things radio waves can do?
Here are a few things that radio waves can do: 1. Communications (TV, Commercial radio, Ham radio etc.) 2. Heat things up, (Microwaves are just extremely short radio waves) 3. They can travel extremely fast (At the speed of light)

What can you do to reduce pollution levels by radio waves?
Stop the use of wifi, radios, televisions, satellites, cellular phones, microwaves and any similar wireless devices?
