The sequence of the listing in the question is correct. From longest to shortest wavelength, these four categories of EM radiation do in fact list in the order: 1). infrared 2). visible 3). ultraviolet 4). X-rays
Infrared radiation has the longest wavelength of those listed.
Refer to the related link below for an illustration of the electromagnetic spectrum.
infrared radiation is the longest.
X-rays have the highest frequency in the electromagnetic spectrum.
Because that's the name we have given to the electromagnetic radiation at the end of the spectrum with the longest waves.
The shortest on this list is gamma rays.The list is stated almost but not quite in the correct order, from longest to shortest wavelength. It should read:RadioInfra-redUltravioletX-raysGamma rays
Wavelength of UV is shorter than that of visible light, in any case. UV is has a very short wavelength the longest wavelength light wave are radio waves.
The longest visible wavelengths are thoseat the red end of the spectrum (rainbow).
Infrared radiation has longer wavelengths.
X-rays have the highest frequency in the electromagnetic spectrum.
The infrared (IR) radiation has a longer wavelength (and a lower frequency) than ultraviolet (UV) radiation. The former is below the visible spectrum, and the latter is above that visible (sometimes called optical) spectrum. However, IR radiation does not have the longest wavelength in the Electromagnetic Spectrum. That would be the Radio Waves. Additionally,: The prefix Infra- suggests "standing under, sub-, inferior to" (IR: Standing under Red light waves) The prefix Ultra- suggests "standing beyond" Violet light waves
Infra-red radiation. Listed in acending order of wavelength: 2. Gamma 1. Ultraviolet 3. Visible light 4. Infra-red
Because that's the name we have given to the electromagnetic radiation at the end of the spectrum with the longest waves.
X-rays have the shortest wavelength of those listed.
On the elecromagnetic spectrum, gamma rays have much more energy
The shortest on this list is gamma rays.The list is stated almost but not quite in the correct order, from longest to shortest wavelength. It should read:RadioInfra-redUltravioletX-raysGamma rays
Radio Waves
radio waves
No, in a vacuum infrared radiation has a wave length of between 10^-6 and 10^-2 while radio waves have 10^-1 and beyond and long radio waves have a length of 10^3 and beyond.
Wavelength of UV is shorter than that of visible light, in any case. UV is has a very short wavelength the longest wavelength light wave are radio waves.
