What electromagnetic waves are produced by stars and galaxies?
Since all such emissions are "black body radiation" (or pretty close), the correct answer is "light". All wavelengths... from the longest radio waves, to very energetic gamma radiation.
What em wave travels through the vacuum of space the fastest?
They all travel the same speed in space. Which travel the farthest in the same amount of time are microwaves. Think of it this way...walk to the park in the city 8 blocks away by moving from one side of the sidewalk to the other. - or - walk down one block, make a left, walk one block make a right, walk one block make a right, walk two blocks make a left, walk one block make a left, walk two blocks make a right...etc You walked the same speed for both....you got to the park faster by just side to side on the same sidewalk
Why does the moon rise red?
Red has the lowest energy of all visible light.
What type of visible light is the sun?
The sun emits all colors of visible light, including red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. The sun's surface temperature is 5,800 Kelvin, and its sunlight has a peak wavelength of about 550 nanometers. This wavelength is perceived as visible white light
What type of light can humans not see?
With the naked eye, the part between 400 and 700 nanometers called the visible spectrum. Red to Violet/Blue. Humans can NOT see ultraviolet light, only what is reflected off using something within the visible spectrum. Humans also can NOT see infrared light without special instruments.
What are radio waves visible light rays and x rays all a part of?
"electromagnetic spectrum"
Is Radio waves are shorter than waves of visible light?
Yes, radio waves have a longer wavelength than visible light. They are part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
What type of electromagnetic waves are visible?
types include (in order of increasing frequency and decreasing wavelength): radio waves, microwaves, terahertz radiation, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays and gamma rays
Do radio waves microwaves and waves all have longer wavelengths than visible light?
Radio and microwaves are longer than visible light. So are heat (infrared) waves. Ultraviolet waves are shorter than visible light. So are X-rays and gamma rays.
Is visible light a form of electromagnetic radiation?
Yes. Radio waves, microwaves, visible light, and x rays are all examples of electromagnetic waves.
How are visible light infrared light X-rays gamma rays microwaves and radio waves related?
they are all part of the electro magnet spectrum :)
Do radio waves microwaves and ultraviolet waves all have longer wavelength than visible light?
Radio and microwaves are longer than visible light. So are heat (infrared) waves. Ultraviolet waves are shorter than visible light. So are X-rays and gamma rays.
How are ultraviolet infrared and visible light the same?
All of them are electromagnetic waves.
Do radio wave microwave and ultraviolet waves all have longer wavelengths than visible light?
Radio and microwaves are longer than visible light. So are heat (infrared) waves. Ultraviolet waves are shorter than visible light. So are X-rays and gamma rays.
How much light can the color white absorb?
White does not absorb light - it reflects all visible light waves, while black absorbs all visible light and reflects nothing.
Do radio waves microwaves and ultraviolet waves all have longer wavelengths than visible lights?
Radio and microwaves are longer than visible light. So are heat (infrared) waves. Ultraviolet waves are shorter than visible light. So are X-rays and gamma rays.
How are visible light ultraviolet light infrared light x-rays gamma rays microwaves and radio waves related?
In that they are all electromagnetic waves.
