Types of electromagnetic energy from least energetic to most energetic?
microwaves < infrared < visible < ultraviolet < x-rays < gamma rays .
Which type of light has the most energy?
Ultraviolet light has the most energy among visible light, followed by visible light, then infrared light. This is because the energy of a photon is inversely proportional to its wavelength, with shorter wavelengths having higher energy. Ultraviolet light has shorter wavelengths than visible light, making it more energetic.
What is the wave length of an ultraviolet wave?
The wavelength of an ultraviolet wave typically ranges from about 10 nanometers to 400 nanometers. This places ultraviolet waves just outside the visible light spectrum, which generally ranges from 400 to 700 nanometers.
What is the energy of electromagnetic waves such as light?
Energy varies with the wavelength. The shorter the wavelength the higher the energy. Ultraviolet much more energetic than red light.
Does visible light have more or less energy than ultraviolet light?
Well, first of all, protons don't make light. I think you mean 'photons'. A photon of ultraviolet light carries more energy than a photon of visible light, because it has a higher frequency / shorter wavelength.
Which type of electromagnetic wave is the most energetic A) gamma rays B) ultraviolet waves C) infrared waves D) microwaves?
A) gamma rays are the most energetic type of electromagnetic wave.
Why could ultraviolet light cause skin cancer?
UV light is energetic and causes DNA damage to exposed skin. This DNA damage can result in cancers forming.
What wavelengths of sunlights carry the most energy?
ultra violet rays Actually, it's spelled ultraviolet rays.
Why cant you see ultra violet light?
Ultraviolet light is too energetic to interact with the chemicals in our eyes, and so it does not produce the effect of sight. A similar statement can be said for infrared, which does not have enough energy.
What type of light is most like sunlight?
Most of the light in sunlight is ultraviolet light, also known as UV light/rays.
Would you expect that ultraviolet light would be reflected by a mirror?
No, ultraviolet light would not be reflected by a regular mirror, as most mirrors are designed to reflect visible light. Specialized mirrors designed to reflect ultraviolet light would be needed for reflection.
What are the most and least energetic kinds of visible light?
The most energetic kind of visible light is violet light, while the least energetic kind is red light. This is because violet light has the shortest wavelength and highest frequency, while red light has the longest wavelength and lowest frequency among visible light colors.
