What else can I help you with?
Is the wavelength of x-rays longer or shorter then the wavelengths of visible light?
"shorter"
Is visible light longer or shorter then rays?
Visible light is made of rays. There are rays with wavelengths that are shorter than visible light and other with longer wavelength.
Which wavelength is longer ultraviolet or light?
The wavelengths of visible light are longer than ultraviolet wavelengths.
Does Heat has shorter wavelengths than visible light?
Yes, heat, in the context of thermal radiation, typically refers to infrared radiation, which has longer wavelengths than visible light. While visible light ranges from about 400 to 700 nanometers, infrared radiation has wavelengths from about 700 nanometers to 1 millimeter. Therefore, heat (infrared) does not have shorter wavelengths than visible light; instead, it has longer wavelengths.
In the electromagnetic spectrum what is the radiation on either side of visible light?
Ultraviolet radiation lies on the shorter-wavelength side of visible light, while infrared radiation lies on the longer-wavelength side. Ultraviolet has higher energy and shorter wavelengths than visible light, while infrared has lower energy and longer wavelengths.
What wave is shorter than a microwave and longer than visible light?
The wave that is shorter than a microwave and longer than visible light is called an infrared wave. Infrared waves have wavelengths longer than visible light waves but shorter than microwaves, making them useful for various applications such as thermal imaging and communication technology.
What has shorter wavelengths than infrared rays?
Ultraviolet rays have shorter wavelengths than infrared rays. Ultraviolet rays have wavelengths shorter than visible light, making them invisible to the human eye, while infrared rays have longer wavelengths.
How are different wavelengths of visible light transmitted by water?
When visible light enters water, shorter wavelengths (blue and violet) are absorbed and scattered more by water molecules than longer wavelengths (red and orange). This is why water appears blue as it absorbs the shorter blue wavelengths and reflects them back. Hence, longer wavelengths penetrate deeper into water, making red light the most visible at greater depths.
What wavelengths are longer than light but shorter than radio waves?
Infrared light, microwaves and radio waves have wavelengths longer than visible light. Radio waves have the longest wavelength.
Which waves are shorter than microwaves and longer than visible light?
Infrared Light has a longer wavelength than visible and a shorter wavelength than microwaves.
What determines the color of visible light?
The color of visible light is determined by its wavelength. Shorter wavelengths appear blue or violet, while longer wavelengths appear red or orange.
Are green wavelengths longer than orange wavelengths?
No, green wavelengths are shorter than orange wavelengths. In the electromagnetic spectrum, longer wavelengths correspond to colors such as red and orange, while shorter wavelengths correspond to colors like blue and green.
