Is ultraviolet the shortest wavelength?
No. If the shortest wavelength is on the left end of the spectrum, the shortest wavelength is microwaves. if the shortest wavelength is on the right end of the spectrum, the shortest wavelength is gamma rays. I think it is microwaves because micro means small.
What is true about microwaves?
they have a longer wavelength than radio waves.
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).
The wavelength of light is very long and the frequency is very short true or false?
false
True or false The Frequency of light is very fast and the wavelength is very short?
True
Are microwaves higher in frequency than short wave radio?
Yes but has shorter wavelength than radiowaves.
Is ultraviolet the shortest wavelength?
No. If the shortest wavelength is on the left end of the spectrum, the shortest wavelength is microwaves. if the shortest wavelength is on the right end of the spectrum, the shortest wavelength is gamma rays. I think it is microwaves because micro means small.
What is the difference between a microwave and a radio wave?
Microwaves are radio waves of very high frequency/ very short wavelength. The exact boundary is not well defined, but frequencies over about one gigahertz (1 000 000 000 Hz) are generally considered "microwave". This boundary, as a wavelength, is anything shorter than about 30 cm. The top end is also loosely defined, as extremely short "radio" waves eventually become infra-red radiation. "Microwaves" extend around 100 gigahertz in frequency, equal to one millimetre (1/10th of a centimetre) in wavelength. The region between microwaves and infra-red is commonly known as "millimetre/millimetric" waves.
Which waves are shorter than microwaves and longer than visible light?
Infrared Light has a longer wavelength than visible and a shorter wavelength than microwaves.
What does word micro signify in microwave oven?
The wavelength.
What on the general electromagnetic spectrum has the second largest wavelength?
Microwaves
What is true about microwaves?
they have a longer wavelength than radio waves.
Why Radio waves and microwaves are non-ionizing radiation?
Because they don't have enough energy (or a short enough wavelength) to knock electrons off of atoms (ionization).
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).
The wavelength of light is very long and the frequency is very short true or false?
false
True or false The Frequency of light is very fast and the wavelength is very short?
True
What kind of waves are microwaves?
Electromagnetic waves, just like light, but with different frequency and wavelength.
