What is electromagnetic radiation with long wavelengths called?

... is an inherently meaningless term; no matter how long a wavelength you name, I can choose one that's longer ("infinity" is not a real wavelength, and for any non-infinite number, there's always a larger one).

What is the fastest visible light wavelength?
If you're talking about how long it takes light to get from here to there ... all wavelengths of light, as well as all wavelengths of every other example of electromagnetic radiation, all travel at the same speed.
What are the differences between xray and visible light?
The X-rays have shorter wavelengths ... shorter than the shortest wave to which the eye responds.
What is the longest wavelengh in the electromagnetic spectrum?
The electromagnetic waves with the longest wavelength are called "radio waves". There is no limit to how long the wavelengths can be.
How long are X-ray wavelengths compared with ultraviolet wavelengths?
Ultraviolet photons have wavelengths below 400nm. X-ray photons have wavelengths between 0.01nm - 10nm. Photons with wavelengths smaller than xrays' are called gamma rays.
What is non visible light?
Plenty. Electromagnetic radiation can occur at all wavelengths imaginable but our eyes can only sense a very narrow band of these (called the visible spectrum, called "light"). Radio waves for example are at frequencies we cannot see, though they can be detected by other methods (radio receivers). X rays are another example, actually damaging if a person is exposed to them for a significant time.
What are the wavelength's of electromagnetic radiation?
The wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation extend from any long wavelength, withno upper limit no matter how long, continuously through all possible wavelengths, withno gaps, down to any short wavelength, with no lower limit no matter how short.
What does a elctromagnetic spectrum do?
Type your answer here...The electromagnetic spectrum is the range of all possible frequencies of electromagnetic radiation.[1] The "electromagnetic spectrum" of an object is the characteristic distribution of electromagnetic radiation emitted or absorbed by that particular object.The electromagnetic spectrum extends from low frequencies used for modern radio to gamma radiation at the short-wavelength end, covering wavelengths from thousands of kilometers down to a fraction of the size of an atom. The long wavelength limit is the size of the universe itself, while it is thought that the short wavelength limit is in the vicinity of the Planck length, although in principle the spectrum is infinite and continuous.
Is infrared radiation part of the electromagnetic radiation?
Yes it is. Infrared is the same physical phenomenon as radio, light, and microwaves. The only difference among them is their wavelengths (frequencies). Infrared is our name for electromagnetic radiation with wavelength just longer than red light ... long enough so that our eyes don't respond to it.
What is the fastest visible light wavelength?
If you're talking about how long it takes light to get from here to there ... all wavelengths of light, as well as all wavelengths of every other example of electromagnetic radiation, all travel at the same speed.
What are the names of the wavelengths?
For electromagnetic waves: thermal radiation and radio waves are pretty long. For sound waves: bass sound waves are pretty long, so is quiet. For water waves: the tides

Long wavelength and a low frequency is what type of radiation?
Electromagnetic radiation
What is the production and transmission of radiant energy?
. . is often accomplished using light bulbs. Radiant energy is commonly used at wavelengths from 30 km down to the wavelength of x-rays and below. It is usually described as electromagnetic radiation.
What is the longest wavelengh in the electromagnetic spectrum?
The electromagnetic waves with the longest wavelength are called "radio waves". There is no limit to how long the wavelengths can be.
What are the differences between xray and visible light?
The X-rays have shorter wavelengths ... shorter than the shortest wave to which the eye responds.
What are the three types electromagnetic spectrums?
-- Long-wave radiation -- Medium-wave radiation -- Short-wave radiation
Does color of the laser affect the velocity of light waves?
No. The speed of all colors of light, and of all other wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation, is the same number, as long as they're all making their way through the same substance.
