Which has higher frequencies microwaves or visible lights?
Visible light has shorter wavelengths than microwaves. Microwaves, which might be considered the highest energy radio waves, have a longer wavelength (and a lower frequency) than visible light.
How the wave lenght and radio vary from gamma rays?

Which type of electromagnetic wave has a wavelenght longer than that of microwaves?
Radio waves, microwaves, infra red, visible, ultraviolet, X-ray and gamma rays are in the order of having more frequency or less wavelength Visible is further expanded as ROYGBIV
Would microwaves have a high or low penetrating ability relative to other em waves?
microwaves are more penetrative than gamma rays, UV radiation and visible light, but less so than radio waves.
What is the term for energy that is transferred in the form of rays or waves?
Electromagnetic energy is transferred by waves. This includes radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, x-rays, and more. Waves can also be found in matter, like sound waves or ocean waves. Mechanical waves like these carry energy as well. However, electromagnetic waves do not need matter to travel.

Why microwaves are dangerous for us and visible light is not?
The degree of interaction between water and microwaves is much greater than that between the former and visible light. As such, microwaves heat up water while visible light does not -- visible either goes though water or bounces off it. Since our bodies consist of a lot of water, microwaves hitting us would cause us to heat up fairly rapidly -- exactly like food in a microwave oven. Getting cooked in a microwave oven is a LOT more dangerous than being illuminated by a lot of visible light.
What is the difference between infrared waves and microwaves?
Microwaves are electromagnetic waves that occur on the EMR (Electromagnetic Radiation) scale above radio/tv waves and below infrared and visible light waves. They are used in cooking devices (microwave oven) and as carrier waves for cell phone and other communication devices. In other words, a "microwave" is a type of electromagnetic radiation (like visible light waves, tv waves and so on), and a "microwave oven" is a cooking device that uses microwaves to heat foods by stimulation of the water molecule.

What waves are more dangerous in an earthquake?
surface waves are more dangerous than body waves with up and down movements.
What are electromagnetic waves also called?
Light is what we usually think of when talking about electromagnetic waves, but in reality they include many other types or radiation, including radio waves, microwaves, infrared waves, visible light, UV rays, X-rays, and even gamma rays.See the Related Questions and Web Links for more information.
Which one is higher energy gamma waves ultra violet waves microwaves radio waves?
The smaller the wavelength (high frequency), the higher the energy. So gamma has the highest energy, followed by x-rays, UV, visible, infrared, microwaves, radio, in descending order. This is also why green laser-pointers are more expensive than red ones ;)
What is the difference between love wave and rayleigh wave?
Love waves and Rayleigh waves are both guided waves. Love waves occur in a thin plate, while Rayleigh waves are a combination of transverse and longitudinal waves on the surface of a half-space.
