these are the entire electromagnetic spectrum: (getting bigger in size)
gamma rays = smallest
x-rays = 2nd smallest
ultra violet
visible light ( ie the rainbow)
infra red
microwaves
radio waves
aswell as this, there are other tpes of wave like sound wave, water wave, heat wave, but theere is some debate about whether light is a wave or a particle, ie the photon, cos iut acts like both
What else can I help you with?
What are electromagnetic waves with the longest wave lengths and the electromagnetic waves with the shortest wave lengths?
The longest wavelength corresponds to long wave radio, I think the longest used is about 2000 meters. The shortest are gamma rays, which occur in radioactivity, these are from about 10-11 meters down.
If the shortest leg of a 30 60 90 triangle has length 3 the length of the hypotenuse is?
6
If the shortest leg of a 30-60-90 triangle has length 3 the length of the hypotenuse is?
6
If the shortest leg of a 30-60-90 triangle has length 3 the height of the hypotenuse is what?
3/cos(60) = 6 units in length
What is the Shortest hair length with braids?
The shortest hair length for cornrows or braids is 4-5 inches of hair. Maybe 3 inches if a hair specialist makes your hair longer by some technique.
What could of radio wave is Gamma rays?
Gamma rays are not radio waves.Radio waves have frequencies in the range 3 kHz to 300 GHz (= 3*10^11 Hz). By contrast, Gamma rays are far more powerful, with frequencies of the order of 10 exaHertz (= 10^19 Hz).
What are the dimensions of a 30-60-90 triangle?
A 30-60-90 triangle has side lengths in a specific ratio: the shortest side (opposite the 30-degree angle) is half the length of the hypotenuse, the longest side (the hypotenuse) is twice the length of the shortest side, and the side opposite the 60-degree angle is ( \sqrt{3} ) times the length of the shortest side. If the shortest side is ( x ), then the hypotenuse is ( 2x ) and the longer leg is ( x\sqrt{3} ). For example, if the shortest side is 1, the hypotenuse would be 2, and the longer leg would be ( \sqrt{3} ).
What radiation has the smallest frequency?
Radio waves have the lowest frequency, Gamma rays have the smallest wave-length.
Electromagnetic waves carry what kind of energy?
It is called electromagnetic energy! But the range of frequencies goes from the lowest which are long wave radio waves, up to the shortest which are gamma rays. On the way it includes infra-red, visible, ultra-violet, microwaves, and X-rays.
How does the speed of a photon compare to the speed of an EM wave?
Wave length of gamma rays is 10 raised to the power of minus 12. It means that you have 10 raised to 12 waves in case of gamma rays/ meter. Wave length of radio wave is 10 raised to 3. So there is difference of '12' zeros between both of them. But the speed of electromagnetic wave is about 300,000,000 meters/ second. It means that photon travels about 300,000,000 meters/second. So the actual distance traveled by photon in case of radio wave is little more than 300,000,000 meters. So in case of gamma rays the distance traveled by photon is 1,000,000,000,000 *1000 = 1000,000,000,000,000 times that of radio wave per second.
If the shortest leg of a 30 degree 60 degree 90 degree triangle has length 7 the length of the hypotenuse is?
In general call the shortest side a and remember this is always the side opposite the 30 degree angle. Then the other leg/side has length a(square root 3) and the hypotenuse has length 2a.So in the case of a=7, the hypotenuse has length 14.
Types of radiant energy in order of their wavelengths?
Longest to shortest 1)radio waves 2)microwaves 3)visible light 4)ultraviolet radiation 5)infrared radiation 6)x-rays 7)gamma rays
