Radar dectectors have very long waves. In fact they are longer than light waves which must travel all the way here from the sun.

What are the electromagnetic waves of energy from long to short?
long medium short vhf uhf microwave
What wave would have more enery one with a long wavelength or a short wavelength?
Both a wave with long wavelength and a wave with short wavelength can have a lot of energy, or little energy.Specifically in the case of electromagnetic waves, a short wavelength corresponds to high energy - but this is only the energy PER PHOTON. But note that each of such waves usually consists of a lot of photons.
What type of waves are used to carry signals?
All range of waves. Mostly short waves , or ultra short waves. They provide higher quality signal, but on less distance.
How long are ultraviolet waves?
Ultraviolet waves have wavelengths ranging from about 10 nanometers to 400 nanometers, making them shorter than visible light waves but longer than X-rays.
Radar waves are too long or too short to be seen?
Radar waves are too long to be seen by the human eye. They have wavelengths ranging from a few millimeters to several meters, which are beyond the visible light spectrum. However, radar technology allows us to detect and visualize these waves for various applications like weather forecasting and aircraft navigation.
Do radio waves have short or long wavelength?
Short wavelength
What bends more light waves with short wavelengths or light waves with long wavelenths?
Light waves with shorter wavelengths bend more compared to light waves with longer wavelengths when passing through a medium due to the phenomenon of dispersion. This is why we see rainbows, where shorter wavelengths (violet/blue) are bent more than longer wavelengths (red) when passing through water droplets.

Is it true that short waves such as the color black are bent more than long waves?
yes
Are radar waves too long or too short to be seen?
Too Long.
Are radar waves too short to see?
no they are too long
What type of electromagnetic waves are used for radars?
Microwaves are typically used for radars because they have the right combination of properties, such as being able to reflect off objects and being able to penetrate various weather conditions. These microwaves have wavelengths ranging from one meter to one millimeter.
What is a tsunami short definition?
Tsunami is a series of long, high sea waves.
Are waves given off by the electric power lines to long or to short to be seen?
They are too long. For a good comparison of different waves, look up "electromagnetic spectrum".
What are waves in the air caused by vibrations?
Waves in the air caused by vibrations are known as sound waves. When an object vibrates, it disturbs the surrounding air molecules, creating compressions and rarefactions that travel through the air as sound waves until they reach our ears, where they are perceived as sound.
What are the categories of the electromagnetic spectrum?
Long waves, medium waves, Short waves coming under Radio waves. Microwaves Infra red Visible light Ultra violet X-radiation Gamma radiation
