What part of the electromagnetic spectrum has the greatest frequency?
If by greatest frequency you mean highest frequency, we know that the upper end of the electromagnetic spectrum has the greatest frequency. This is the home to the gamma rays. They have the highest frequency, shortest wavelength, and the greatest energy.
What is the transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves?
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.
What part of the electromagnetic spectrum is used to see inside containers without opening them?
X-Ray Fam.
Part of the electromagnetic spectrum makes the sidewalk feel warm on a sunny day?
The sun emits all of the electromagnetic spectrum. The part that heats the sidewalk is the infrared region which is invisible and has a long wavelength. Dark objects absorb much more heat than lighter objects so that asphalt pavement will get much hotter than concrete.
Why SETI examines radio wave rather than other electromagnetic spectrum?
Because it's assumed that extra-terrestrial life will communicate via the radio-waves part of the spectrum. Having said that - there is no reason why another part of the ES couldn't be used. As one scientist said years ago about contacting aliens - "...They may have already sent us messages - we're probably just not looking in the right place for them !..."
Does energy make up sound?
Sound is energy. It is part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
What radio wave with the greatest energy?
Radio waves are part of the electromagnetic spectrum. The electromagnetic waves with the greatest energy are gamma rays.
What part of the electromagnetic spectrum do MOST telescopes use?
Visible light
What is Radiant light energy?
This is part of the Electromagnetic radiation spectrum, visible light occupies a small part of this spectrum, but all wavelengths have the same physical properties
The part of the electromagnetic spectrum that you can actually see is called the spectrum?
No, its just visible light - light is part of the electromagnetic spectrum and is in the middle of it.
Which part of the electromagnetic spectrum are molecules most easily detected?
Radio waves
Why is sound not part of the electromagnetic spectrum?
Could it be that the frequency of sound waves are to low?
What is the radiant energy that acts upon the retina?
Electromagnetic radiation in the visible part of the spectrum, red to violet
What is visible light part of?
Visible light is part of what is called the electromagnetic spectrum. Light is electromagnetic energy, and so are radio waves, microwaves, X-rays and gamma rays.
In what region of the electromagnetic spectrum is the resonant frequency of electrons in glass?
I think in the ultraviolet region of the electromagnetic spectrum.
When you turn a heat lamp on What happens to the electrical energy?
It gets radiated away, as infrared radiation, which is part of the electromagnetic spectrum.It gets radiated away, as infrared radiation, which is part of the electromagnetic spectrum.It gets radiated away, as infrared radiation, which is part of the electromagnetic spectrum.It gets radiated away, as infrared radiation, which is part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
What properties does visible light have in common with the rest of the electromagnetic spectrum?
Visible light is a subset of the electromagnetic spectrum. Starting at the longest wavelengths (lowest frequencies), the electromagnetic spectum includes:Radio wavesMicrowavesInfra-redVisible lightUltravioletX-raysGamma raysRefer to the related link below for additional informaiton.
