What uses microwave radar?

No. Radar use electromagnetic radiation of a much longer wavelength


Do Radio waves run microwave ovens?

Scientists group electromagnetic waves into categories according to their wavelength. Technically a radio wave has a longer wavelength then a microwave but that's the only fundamental difference. They are both electromagnetic waves.


What type of wave is a microwave?

a microwave is an electromagnetic wave.================Answer #2:A microwave is a radio wave with a wavelengthless than 10 cm (frequency greater than 3 GHz).


What is the ascending order of the eight electromagnetic spectrum waves base from their wavelength?

Shortest wavelength is gamma rays. Next longer wavelength is with Xrays. Then Ultraviolet, visible radiations, infra red, microwaves, radio waves with shorter wavelength and radio waves with longer wavelength


Is visible light a shorter or longer wavelength energy in this spectrum?

Shorter or longer than what ? The wavelength of visible light is shorter than that of radio and heat, and longer than the wavelength of X-ray and gamma radiation. And the wavelength of green light is shorter than red light but longer than blue light.


Will a wavelength be shorter or longer the slower the object vibrates?

longer


Is the wavelength of microwave radiation greater than the wavelength of visible light?

Not even close. Microwaves are much longer, with a lower frequency, than light is.The shortest 'microwave' is in the neighborhood of 1 millimeter long (300 GHz).That's about 1,540 times as long as the longest visible wave (red, 650 nm)).


What does microwave stands for?

Microwaves are wavelengths of light that are shorter than radio waves, but longer than infrared light waves. The wavelength range is 1 meter to 1mm. One particular wavelength is optimum for being absorbed by water, and this is what "microwave ovens" are tuned to produce. This is 2.45 GHz, which is about 12.2cm wavelength.


An electromagnetic wave with a longer wavelength has a lower?

frequency


Which waves are shorter than microwaves and longer than visible light?

Infrared Light has a longer wavelength than visible and a shorter wavelength than microwaves.


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.
