There is a system of formal designation of the region of the electromagnetic
spectrum that we know how to generate and modulate for communication.
The naming system differentiates among arbitrary sections of "radio" based
on slices of decades (10 times) of frequency and wavelength. You'll recognize
some of the abbreviations, like VHF and UHF:
Very Low Frequency (VLF)
3 - 30 KHz
100,000 - 10,000 meters
Low Frequency (LF)
30 - 300 KHz
10,000 - 1,000 meters
Medium Frequency (MF)
300 KHz - 3 MHz
1,000 - 100 meters
High Frequency (HF)
3 - 30 MHz
100 - 10 meters
Very High Frequency (VHF)
30 - 300 MHz
10 - 1 meter
Ultra High Frequency (UHF)
300 MHz - 3 GHz
1 meter - 10 cm
Super High Frequency (SHF)
3 - 30 GHz
10 - 1 cm
Extreme High Frequency (EHF)
30 - 300 GHz
1 cm - 1 mm

How are x-rays and earthquake waves similar?
They are both transverse waves, albeit having different wavelength and frequency. I think that velocity of the waves will also be different as x-rays travel at the speed of light.
What is the average resonant frequency of an earthquake?
All earthquakes have a different resonant frequency that can range from 10-50Hz. The average frequency would be around 31Hz or equivalent to the low B string on a 5 string bass guitar.
What is Shadow over heart in xray?
had a chest xray, there was a shadow over my heart what is it
Can arteries show up on xray?
If they are calcified, such as an aorta that has plaque build up. Abdominal aortic aneurysms can sometimes be seen on xray in this situation. However, in general, arteries do not show up on xray.
What waves can travel through solids and liquids?
Electro-magnetic waves of many kinds travel through certain solids and liquids: radio waves (these are waves of relatively low frequency/high wavelength) can travel through almost anything. Microwaves - shorter wavelength, higher frequency - need particular materials to stop them. Gamma rays (a form of radioactivity) can pass through many solids, and need a very thick layer of a dense metal such as LEAD to stop them. Visible light, which is also a form of electro-magnetic radiation - can (obviously) travel through some liquids and solids; those which are to some extent transparent.Sound waves - which are pressure waves - can also travel through solids and liquids.Generally, the answer to the question varies according to which solids and liquids are being considered; and each of these will permit a different range of waves to pass through them.
Which has more energy an infrared or xray photon?
An X-ray proton. This is so because the x-ray has much higher frequency and shorter waves.
What will increase the effective energy of the xray beam?
increasing its frequency
What is xray short for?
Energetic High-frequency Electromagnetic Radiation
Which waves have lower frequency radar waves or visible waves?
Radar waves have a lower frequency that light waves.The frequency of a light wave is related to wavelength and speed by the equation c = »½. The color of a light wave is also determined by the frequency. The amplitude and brightness are not related to the frequency.
What is a low frequency wave?
Radio waves are the lowest frequency waves. Next are microwaves, then infra-red waves.
How does an ultra sound work?
By creating an xray using sound waves.
How does frequency apply to periodic waves?
Periodic waves are characterized by a frequency, a wavelength, and by their speed.
What are electromagnetic waves organized by frequency?
the electromagnetic waves are organized from low to high frequency.
The number of complete waves that pass a point in a certain amount of time is a wave's?
This is known as the frequency of the wave.
What are the highest-frequency and and the lowest-frequency parts of the EM system?
Lowest-frequency: Radio Waves Highest-frequency: Gamma Waves Hope this helped! :)
Electromagnetic waves with the highest energy have the?
Electromagnetic waves of higher energy have a higher frequency and a smaller wavelength.Electromagnetic waves of higher energy have a higher frequency and a smaller wavelength.Electromagnetic waves of higher energy have a higher frequency and a smaller wavelength.Electromagnetic waves of higher energy have a higher frequency and a smaller wavelength.
What is the frequency of the waves traveling to the shore if six waves reach the shore in 30 seconds?
The frequency of the waves is 0.20 HZ.
