Long wavelength and a low frequency is what type of radiation?
Electromagnetic radiation
Which type of radiation from the sun is the longest wavelength?
Radio waves are at the long wavelength end of the sun's emissions.
Which type of electromagnetic wave has a wavelength that is about 10m to 1000m long?
The type of electromagnetic radiation includes the wavelength of 10 up to the -7 m is visible light. The wavelike properties of electrons are useful in determining the velocity and position of a particle.
Waves with long wavelength low frequency?
yes waves with long wavelengthhave low frequency also low energy.
How is infrared radiation different from visible radiation?
Both are examples of electromagnetic radiation. Infrared has a longer wavelength (lower frequency) than visible light. Of course visible light is visible to humans and infrared is not (although long wave Infrared is sensible to humans as heat).
What is long wavelength radiation given out by stars?
Infrared radiation is long wavelength radiation given out by stars.
Long wavelength and a low frequency is what type of radiation?
Electromagnetic radiation
How does long wavelength radiation contribute to the greenhouse effect?
The trapping by the greenhouse gases of the long wavelength radiation (infrared) leads to more heating and a higher resultant temperature.
What does it mean for something to have wavelike properties?
Waves are characterized by wavelength, frequency, and speed. Wavelength is the distance between two consecutive peaks or troughs in a wave. The frequency is defined as the number of waves (cycles) per second that pass a given space. Since all types of electromagnetic radiation travel at the speed of light, short-wavelength radiation must have a high frequency and long-wavelength radiation must have a low frequency.
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.
A device for removing long wavelength radiation from the primary x-ray beam is a?
Filter
Which type of radiation from the sun is the longest wavelength?
Radio waves are at the long wavelength end of the sun's emissions.
The lower atmosphere is directly warmed by?
By the emission of the terrestrial radiation. Terrestrial radiation is emitted in the infrared long-wavelength part of the spectrum. It is terrestrial radiation rather than solar radiation that directly warms the lower atmosphere.
Which has the greatest frequency out of radio wave microwave infrared wave visible light ultraviolet light x ray gamma ray?
X-rays have the highest frequency in the electromagnetic spectrum.
What is the most destrucive fore in the universe?
Entropy - it wears everything down, ultimately converting it to long wavelength heat radiation.
What is the electromagnets?
By analogy with the spectrum of visible light from violet to red, with colours ordered in increasing wavelength, the electromagnetic spectrum is the collection of all types of electromagnetic radiation ordered by increasing wavelength. EM radiation that we can detect runs from ultra-long wavelength radio waves used to communicate with submarines, through long-wave, short-wave, VHF and UHF radio to microwaves, infra-red (heat radiation), visible light, UV, X-rays and gamma rays.
What are two forms of radiation that are reduced by the atmosphere?
Ultraviolet radiation is absorbed by ozone in the ozone layer. Low-energy (long wavelength) radiation, including infrared, microwave, and radio waves, is typically deflected by atmospheric particles.
