Which radiation is the range of electromagnetic waves with frequencies higher than violet on the visible spectrum?
-- ultraviolet -- X-rays -- gamma rays
What are the highest- frequency and lowest -frequency parts of the EM spectrum?
The highest frequency is gamma rays And the lowest is radio waves
Types of radio waves?
Both gamma rays and radio waves are part of the electromagnetic spectrum, but gamma rays are much higher frequency (shorter wavelength) than radio waves. Visible light is lower frequency than gamma and higher than radio.
Why is the sunlight reaching the earth yellowish?
Sunlight is actually light waves of different frequencies. Some of these waves are part of the visible light spectrum (ROYGBIV), and therefore sunlight appears white, a combination of all the frequencies in the visible light spectrum. Light waves with lower frequencies appear more red or orange. Light waves with higher frequencies appear violet or blue. When sunlight shines down through the atmosphere, the particles in the air scatter the light waves of higher frequencies, therefore spreading the waves in different directions in the sky (This is why the sky appears blue). The lower frequency waves reach our eyes mostly undisturbed. Since sunlight has light frequencies dominant in yellow, that's the color we see.
Can ultrasound waves are alpha beta or gamma rays?
No, they are unrelated. Alpha and beta radiation are particle streams, not waves. And gamma rays are electromagnetic waves.
Do gamma waves have higher frequencies than ultraviolet waves?
Yes, they do.
The electromagnetic waves with the highest frequencies are called?
The answer is gamma rays.
What waves the shortest wavelength and the highest frequency?
I'll answer your question for a variety of waves. For sound waves, higher pitch sounds have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths. For water waves, the slowest moving waves have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths. For seismic waves, S waves have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths than P waves. For electromagnetic waves, X-rays and gamma rays have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths than, say, visible light. For quantum mechanical, de Broglie waves, particles with classical analogues of momentum have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths than individual particles.
Which has a higher frequency gamma rays or radio rays?
Gamma rays have a much higher frequency then radio waves.
What are elecromagnetic waves with the highest frequencies called?
gamma rays. they have the shortesst wawvelengths and the highest frequencies.
Which electromagnetic waves have higher frequencies than ultraviolet waves?
Ultra violet light starts just above the visible violet.
Which electromagnetic waves have the shortest wavelengths and highest frequencies?
Those are called gamma rays, or gamma radiation.
What are electromagnetic waves with the highest frequencies and the shortest wavelength?
Gamma rays
The electromagnetic waves with the highest frequencies and shortest wavelengths are?
Gamma rays
What are electromagnetic waves with the shortest wavelengths and the highest frequencies?
Gamma rays
Which radiation is the range of electromagnetic waves with frequencies higher than violet on the visible spectrum?
-- ultraviolet -- X-rays -- gamma rays
Gamma rays faster than radio waves?
No. Gamma rays and radio waves are both electromagnetic waves and travel at the same speed. They just have different wavelengths/frequencies.
