Where is visible light found in the electromagnetic spectrum?
Electromagnetism is manifest along a continuum between slower radio waves and faster energy gamma waves. Visible light can be found in the range between infrared light (slower than waves of visible light) and ultraviolet light (faster than waves of visible light).
What is the definition of microwaves and how are they used in everyday life?
Microwaves are a type of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths between infrared radiation and radio waves. In everyday life, microwaves are commonly used in microwave ovens to quickly heat and cook food. They are also used in communication technologies such as cell phones and Wi-Fi to transmit signals wirelessly.
What wave can be detected by the eye?
The human eye detects only electromagnetic waves, and even then, only those electromagnetic waves with wavelengths between 4000 and 7000 angstroms.
When the Navy established the WAVES what consisted of them?
Women in the WAVES (Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Service) came from all walks of life, as does anyone who enlists in the military. The difference between the WAVES and other organizations that had women at the time (e.g., WAACS) is that women in the WAVES were actually in the military, where others were support organizations.
What is the similarities between radar and sonar?
They both bounce back waves to and from the receiver in order to locate and judge the distance of objects.
Higher frequencies ultraviolet waves or infrared waves?
Ultraviolet is higher frequency, then visible light, then infrared.
Are infrared waves shorter or longer than ultra-violet waves?
Infrared is a much longer wavelength than ultraviolet.
Compared to the wavelength of ultraviolet waves the wavelength of infrared waves is?
The wavelength of ultraviolet waves is shorter than the wavelength of infrared waves. Ultraviolet waves have wavelengths ranging from 10 nm to 400 nm, while infrared waves have wavelengths ranging from 700 nm to 1 mm.
What has wavelengths between one thousandth and 700 billionths of a meter?
They are infrared waves! ^__^
Does an infrared have have more or less energy than an ultraviolet wave?
Infrared waves have far less energy than ultraviolet, being much further down the spectrum.
How does the wavelength of infrared compare with the wavelength of ultraviolet waves?
Infrared waves have longer wavelengths than ultraviolet waves. Infrared waves range from about 700 nanometers to 1 millimeter, while ultraviolet waves range from about 10 nanometers to 400 nanometers.
How does the wavelength of infrared compared the wavelength of ultraviolet waves?
Wavelength of infra red would be greater than that of ultra violet waves.
What travels faster ultraviolet waves or infrared waves in space?
Ultraviolet waves travel faster than infrared waves in space because they have shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies. The speed of electromagnetic waves, including ultraviolet and infrared, in space is determined by the speed of light, which is a constant value in a vacuum.
Are Infared waves have a larger wavelength than Ultraviolet light?
Yes, infrared waves have a larger wavelength than ultraviolet light. Infrared waves have wavelengths longer than those of visible light, while ultraviolet light has wavelengths shorter than visible light.
How are ultraviolet infrared and visible light the same?
All of them are electromagnetic waves.
How are infrared waves waves samilar to ultraviolet waves?
They're exactly the same thing, except that they're longer.
What form of energy travels in varying wavelengths such as visible light infrared waves radio waves ultraviolet waves and X rays?
The electromagnetic spectrum includes visible light radio waves and infrared ultraviolet and x-rays.
