How does frequency vary different forms of electromagnetic radiation?
Wiki User
∙ 14y ago
We call light electromagnetic radiation with certain frequencies; higher frequencies and we call it Ultra violet, X-rays and gamma radiation. Frequencies lower than light we call infra red, and radio.

When electromagnetic radiation is arranged to wavelength and frequency it forms the?
When electromagnetic radiation is arranged to wavelength and frequency it forms the electromagnetic spectrum.
The what is the arrangement of the forms of electromagnetic radiation according to their wavelengths?
The frequency is the arrangement of the forms of electromagnetic radiation according to their wavelengths.
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.
The various types of electromagnetic radiation are distinguished from each other by their?
Electromagnetic waves are classified according to their wavelength and frequency and this classification is called electromagnetic spectrum.
What represents the different form of electromagnetic radiation?
In order from longest wavelength and lowest frequency to shortest wavelength and highest frequency, they are radio waves, microwaves, infrared rays, visible light, UV (ultraviolet) rays, X-rays, and gamma rays.Our Chemistry and Physics teacher taught us with a mnemonic device:Real Men In Violet Underwear are eXtremely Gorgeouswith each bold letter standing for the energies in order, according to the electromagnetic spectrum.

The frequency is the arrangement of the forms of electromagnetic radiation according to their wavelengths.
All forms of electromagnetic radiation are?
The forms of electromagnetic radiation are (in increasing frequency):Radio WavesMicrowavesInfrared WavesVisible LightUltraviolet WavesX-RaysGamma Rays
What represents different forms of electromagnetic radiation?
different forms of electromagnet
Radio wave frequency and microwave radiation are both forms of energy called electromagnetic radiation?
The answer is yes.
What do all of the different forms of electromagnetic radiation together make up?
The Electromagnetic Spectrum.
Does xrays have a lower frequency?

What are the forms of radiation?
Alpha, Beta, Neutron, X-ray, Gamma, Neutron radiation, Electromagnetic radiation, Visible light, Infrared, Microwave, Radio waves, Very low frequency (VLF), Extremely low frequency (ELF), Thermal radiation (heat) and Black body radiation.
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".
Why is radiation referred to as electromagnetic?
Though not all radiation is electromagnetic, a lot of it is. Sound, which is mechanical energy, can radiate. It is a type of radiated energy. There are others. But radio waves, microwaves, light, X-rays and gamma rays are all forms of electromagnetic energy. The only difference is the frequency or energy of the radiation (and we lined them up for you from lower frequency to higher frequency). The universe is awash is electromagnetic energy.
