Is infrared a type of radiation ray?

yes so is am fm radio and tv signals


Explain why the energy of infrared waves is greater than the energy of radio waves?

The energy of infrared waves is greater than the energy of radio waves. This is because infrared waves has a smaller wavelength compared to radio waves. The smaller the wavelength, the higher the energy.


Which has the greatest frequency out of radio wave microwave infrared wave visible light ultraviolet light x ray gamma ray?

X-rays have the highest frequency in the electromagnetic spectrum.


What is a radio wave's relative wavelength and frequency is?

The wave length and frequency of course vary, the frequency ranges from 3kHz to 300 GHz. The wavelengths are longer than infrared.


On the electromagnetic spectrum microwaves are located between infrared waves and radio waves. Which is true for microwaves?

That means that both the frequency and the wavelength of microwaves are also between those of infrared and radio waves.


Which has a longer wavelength radio or infrared?

Radio wave.


Order the types of waves from lowest frequency and wavelength to the highest?

There are many types of waves, but the main ones are: radio waves, microwaves, infrared waves, visible light waves, ultraviolet waves, x-rays, and gamma rays. Radio waves have the longest wavelength and lowest frequency. Gamma rays have the shortest wavelength and highest frequency.


What do infrared and radio waves have in common?

They are just different frequency bands of the electromagnetic spectrum.


What are electromagnetic frequencies to which are eyes are sensitive?

Electromagnetic waves of different frequency are called by different names since they have different sources and effects on matter. In order of increasing frequency and decreasing wavelength these are: radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays and gamma rays.


What are 3 forms of Electromagnetic Radiation with a wavelength less than visible light?

The wavelength of electromagnetic radiation is a measure of the frequency; multiply the frequency times the wavelength, and the answer is ALWAYS the "Speed of Light", which we abbreviate as "c". All of these are different "bands" of electromagnetic energy. Radio is the longest wavelength and lowest frequency. "Low Frequency" is the lowest, followed by "high frequency", "very high frequency" or VHF, "ultra-high frequency" or UHF. Beyond that are microwaves, and then heat, then "infrared", and then visible light. Higher frequency (and shorter wavelengths) than light are "ultra-violet", then X-rays, and then "gamma rays".


What is the frequency of a radio wave with a wavelength of 3?

Frequency = speed/wavelength = 300,000,000/3 = 100 MHz.


What is the frequency of a150 meter radio wavelength?

Frequency = speed/wavelength = 300,000,000/150 = 2 MHz
