What type of electromagnetic wave has the highest velocity?
Gamma waves have the highest frequency (and energy) of all the electromagnetic waves. Gamma Ray Bursts (GRB) from outer space (and that's about all we know of them!) have extraordinary high energies, and hence frequencies.
Do guitar amplifiers emit electromagnetic radiation?
all beings emit electromagnetic energy. transcription before translation. Translation in this conversation who makes electromagnetic amplifiers making elecromagnetic amplifiers?
Does solar radiation contain a complete spectrum of all forms of electromagnetic radiation?
Yes it does. It contains all the forms of radiation, but 99% of its energy is carried by radiation with wavelengths between 278 and 4600 nm, with the maximum at 4720 nm.
Why is the study of electromagnetic radiation important to your understanding of how electrons are arranged in the atom?
Electromagnetic Radiation is electron radiation as pulsed by the Sun at all measured frequencies
Is all electromagnetic radiation in the optical portion of the electromagnetic spectrum is visable?
Yes
What is gamma radiation composed of?
It is electromagnetic radiation just like radio, microwaves, visible light etc.. except it has the highest frequency and energy and shortest wavelength of all electromagnetic radiation.
What is the transfer of energy as electromagnetic waves?
first of all electromagnetic waves are energy waves. and we call electromagnetic waves RADIATION.
What type of radiation causes most ionisation?
The electromagnetic radiation most capable of ionizing is the radiation with the highest energy per quantum. That in turn implies the radiation with the highest frequency (shortest wavelength). The highest-energy end of the electromagnetic spectrum is the region we call "gamma rays". We can't generate these, and the gamma rays we observe all originate in radioactive nuclear processes.
Why does electromagnetic radiation have the lowest energy?
Electromagnetic radiation has a wide range of energies. On the low end, there is ELF, and on the high end there is gamma radiation. It all depends on frequency.
Energy that travels by radiation is often called what?
When we use the term "radiation" as regards energy, probably the first thing that comes to mind is electromagnetic energy. Electromagnetic (EM) energy is often called electromagnetic radiation. We know that this could be radio waves, microwave energy, infrared light, light from the visual spectrum, ultraviolet light, X-rays or gamma rays. All of these are forms of electromagnetic radiation, and a link can be found below for more information.Radiant energy.
What type of electromagnetic wave has the highest velocity?
Gamma waves have the highest frequency (and energy) of all the electromagnetic waves. Gamma Ray Bursts (GRB) from outer space (and that's about all we know of them!) have extraordinary high energies, and hence frequencies.
How radiation affected by surface temperature?
Nuclear radiation is not affected at all, but radiation by Electromagnetic Radiation is. This is a straight Physics topic, not Nuclear Energy.
The energy produced by electromagnetic waves is called?
The transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves is called electromagnetic radiation. Light, radio waves and X-rays are a few other examples of this radiation phenomenon. The Transfer process is the "flow" of particles from one location to another. The best visual example is the transfer of "heat" from one source to another.
Is radiation the direct transfer of energy by electromagnetic?
It's the emission of electromagnetic energy from something, not the transfer. That em-radiation could travel for ever across the universe, never interacting with anything ever again and it would still be radiation.________________________________________________________Not all radiation is electromagnetic engery. Electromagnetic energy is transfered by way of photons. Photons are emited through gamma radiation and black body radiation. Nuclear decay of alpha particles and beta particles (which are also considered radiations) are actual particles that have mass, and are not electromagnetic radiation.
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. It's all around us. Use the links below to learn more.
What is electromagnetic spectrume?
ALL the radiation from the lowest frequency to the highest.
What is electromagnetic radiation with the shortest wavelength?
The gamma ray has the shortest wavelength (and shortest period) as well as the highest frequency (and highest energy) of all forms of electromagnetic radiation.That's the part of the spectrum that we call "gamma rays".There is no definite answer to this as we can have shorter and shorter wavelengths from a value which we have assigned to be the shortest wavelength.However, gamma rays have the shortest wavelength in the electromagnetic spectrum.Gamma radiation ;)The region of the spectrum that we call "gamma rays" has.
