The lower frequency boundary is open to discussion; it is difficult to know where the far infrared becomes the "millimetric" microwaves. Somewhere round about 10THz (=1013Hz) The upper bound is easy - if it is just too low a frequency to see, then it is infrared. 384THz (=3.84 X 1014Hz)

Is infared a transverse or longitudinal wave?

No doubt about it; infra red rays are transverse in nature. Only sound waves are longitudinal. Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves. Infra red belongs to that family of electromagnetic waves.


How does the speed of radio waves compare with the speed of infrared waves?

Radio waves travel at the speed of light, which is the fastest speed possible in a vacuum. Infrared waves also travel at the speed of light, so both types of waves travel at the same speed.


How does the speed of radio waves compare with the speed of infrared waves?

Radio waves travel at the speed of light, which is approximately 300,000 kilometers per second in a vacuum. Infrared waves also travel at the speed of light, so both types of waves travel at the same speed.


What affect if any does the increasing the speed of the plunger have pn the wavelength of the waves?

Increasing the speed of the plunger will not affect the wavelength of the waves. The wavelength of the waves is determined by the frequency of the source that is creating the waves, not by the speed of the medium through which the waves are traveling.
