No this is not a stupid question. A wave with frequency too "low" would actually have 0 energy. I assume you mean when the wave actually becomes flat. E=hf would become 0=hf meaning 0/h=f meaning frequency is 0. If 0 is the "too low" you want, then there you go. "Too high" of a frequency means infinite energy, aka impossible. The speed of light is calculated to be the limit because of this impossibility. E=hf solves to f=infinity/h aka infinity aka impossible in the physical world. Please let me know if you need any more help.

How is infrared light different from red light?

NO, THE FREQUENCY OF INFRARED LIGHT IS TOO SLOW (WITH CONCOMITANT LONG WAVE LENGTHS) TO EXCITE THE NERVES IN THE RETINAS OF THE EYES. INFRARED RADIATION IS ONE FORM OF ENERGY FROM THE SUN THAT IS ABSORBED BY THE WHOLE BODY. No, heat doesn't appear red to the naked human eye, because infrared light isn't in the visible spectrum of colors that humans can see. Heat's wavelengths are too short for the naked eye to detect, just like ultraviolet's wavelengths are too long for the nake eye to also detect. However, your skin can detect infrared light and respond to it by sweating when it's absorbing too much heat.


Which characteristic is common to microwaves radar waves and television waves?

Television waves are radar waves or radio waves simply because they are useful for long term communication and are readily reflected by the ionosphere. Microwaves are used for short term communication very rarely and for heating purposes. All three however travel at the same speed that is 299,792,468 m/s.

If you looked closely could you see the wavelength of a fast moving car?

In theory, according to de Broglie, any moving object would have a wavelength; but the wavelength of large sized objects, such as a car, or even a speck of dust, would be too small to measure.

What happens if the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave is too long or too short?

If the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave is too long, it may not interact efficiently with objects or materials that are small compared to its wavelength. If the wavelength is too short, it may not penetrate materials or be easily absorbed by certain substances. This can affect the transmission and reception of the wave in different mediums.

Is it true that the color of visible light depends on the wavelength of the light?

It's true! Shorter wavelengths equate to bluer light, while redder light comes from longer wavelengths. However, if the wavelength of the light becomes too long or too short, the light becomes ultra violet or infrared, meaning they become invisible.
