Which waves have shorter wavelengths radio waves or xrays?

X-rays have shorter wavelengths than radio, heat, infra-red, visible light, and ultra-violet.


How long are X-ray wavelengths compared with ultraviolet wavelengths?

Ultraviolet photons have wavelengths below 400nm. X-ray photons have wavelengths between 0.01nm - 10nm. Photons with wavelengths smaller than xrays' are called gamma rays.


Does xrays have a lower frequency?

Compared to most forms of electromagnetic radiation, X-rays have a high frequency. Only gamma rays have a higher frequency.


What has shorter wavelengths than infrared rays?

Infrared rays have a shorter wavelength than microwaves and radio waves. All are examples of electromagnetic radiation.


What wave length of light is the shortest?

Violet is actually the shortest wavelength, as you consider the color spectrum. After blue comes indigo, then violet. So blue is the third shortest. The color spectrum ranges from red to violet, with red being the longest. Naturally, violet would then be the shortest. Of course this goes for human visible wavelengths. Ultraviolet light is shorter in wavelength, but not human visible. Xrays have even shorter wavelengths, but they also are not human visible. Gamma rays are the shortest of all, but again not human visible.


Which has a higher frequency gamma rays or xrays?

gamma has the highest frequency because on a wave chart the gamma rays have the most energy and frequency


Do x-rays have a longer wave length than infrared waves?

The wavelength of Xrays is EXTREMELY short compared to microwaves. Wavelengths of xrays are from 10 to .01 nanometres. (10 nanometres is .00000001 metres). Wavelengths of microwaves are usually between 100 and 10 millimetres although they are not clearly defined. This means the wavelength of microwaves is 10 billion times longer than xrays.


92.7 is frequency or wavelength?

Hz (Hertz)is unit of Frequency where Wavelength is measured in metres (for eg. XRays have wavelength around 10X109m).92.7 without unit is a number only.


How do the waves of the electromagnetic spectrum differ?

In the spectrum of electromagnetic radiation the wave property that changes is the frequency. So for example xrays have higher frequency then blue light which has higher frequency then red light which has higher frequency then radio waves etc.


What is the electro-magetic spectrum?

gamma rays, xrays, uv light, visible light, infra red, microwaves, radio waves


Radio waves have longer wavelengths than xrays?

Yes, radio waves have TREMENDOUSLY longer wavelengths than X-rays. This comparison is like comparing a grain of sand to the planet Earth. There is a very big difference in size.


Astronomers think that the areas around black holes give off?

A. visible light B. Nebulas C. Helium or D. Xrays
