If Radio waves have a longer wavelength than microwaves What else is true about radio waves?

If the wavelength is longer, then the frequency is lower and the energy is less.


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).


Why frequency of microwaves is longer than radio waves?

Microwaves are radio waves. That name is given to radio waves atfrequencies above 3 GHz (wavelength less than 10 centimeters).


What types of energy does a radio?

Basically Electromagnetic waves but less powerful than microwaves and visible rays. Called radio waves their range of wavelengths are of the order of a few centi-metres to metres (atleast twice the length of ur receiver antenna)


Can microwaves cannot be aimed in a single direction and have less carrying capacity than radio waves?

False


Would microwaves have a high or low penetrating ability relative to other em waves?

microwaves are more penetrative than gamma rays, UV radiation and visible light, but less so than radio waves.


How the wave lenght and radio vary from gamma rays?

Which type of electromagnetic wave has less energy than an infrared wave?

Waves with lower frequency: for example radio waves.


How are microwaves different from radio waves?

"Microwave" is the loose term used to describe the higher-frequency portion of the general category of radio waves. The closest thing to a formal definition says that "microwave" is anything with a frequency higher than 3 GHz (wavelength less than 10 centimeters).


How are radio waves affected in the atmosphere?

I dont think they do, Radio waves diffract less and arn't affected by the ionosphere which is the upper part of the atmosphere. Most electromagnetic waves are affected severely by the atmosphere, which is a good thing due to the strength they carry EXCEPT microwaves *Apparantly*.


Why does a radio waves carry less energy than an ultraviolet wave?

From the equation E=hv where h= plank's constant v=frequency and ultraviolet waves has more frequency than radio waves hence ultraviolet waves have more energy.


What are the two forms of energy a radio uses?

Basically Electromagnetic waves but less powerful than microwaves and visible rays. Called radio waves their range of wavelengths are of the order of a few centi-metres to metres (atleast twice the length of ur receiver antenna)
