Their frequencies are quite different. Microwaves are electromagnetic radiation with frequencies in the range from 300 MHz (0.3 GHz) to 300 GHz. Ultraviolet rays are electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths in the range from 10 nm to 400 nm (frequencies from 2.99x107 to 7.5x105 GHz). Since the frequencies are so different, UV filters may not filter microwaves and vice-versa. Similarly, absorption of the two forms of radiation is quite different. Microwaves can heat a cup of soup up very nicely while you could die of starvation waiting for UV rays to heat it up.
What else can I help you with?
Why frequency of microwaves is longer than radio waves?
Microwaves are radio waves. That name is given to radio waves atfrequencies above 3 GHz (wavelength less than 10 centimeters).
Are microwaves radio waves?
Yes and No All waves like that or electomagnetic waves that are the same thing but just operate on different frequencies and wavelengths But not microwaves are as much radio waves as they transmit heat signatures are well as slight audio signature Essentially no but they are very similar microwaves are just faster and at a different wavelengths
Do satellites normally use microwaves or radio waves?
Microwaves are radio waves.Most satellites communicate in microwave radio frequency bands.
What wave viabrates faster radio wave or microwaves?
Microwaves ARE radio waves, with frequencies above 3 GHz.
Which characteristic is common to microwaves radio waves and television waves?
They are all radio waves with frequencies lower than visible light.
Which part of the electromagnetic spectrum is nearest to radio waves?
Microwaves are nearest to radio waves in the electromagnetic spectrum. They have slightly higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths compared to radio waves.
On the electromagnetic spectrum microwaves are located between infrared waves and radio waves. Which is true for microwaves?
That means that both the frequency and the wavelength of microwaves are also between those of infrared and radio waves.
Do microwaves have more or less energy than radio waves?
Microwaves have more energy than radio waves. They have shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies, which results in more energy being carried by microwaves compared to radio waves.
Are radio waves longer than microwaves?
Radio waves have longer wavelengths than microwaves. Radio waves typically have wavelengths ranging from a few millimeters to kilometers, while microwaves have wavelengths ranging from a few millimeters to a few centimeters.
Why frequency of microwaves is longer than radio waves?
Microwaves are radio waves. That name is given to radio waves atfrequencies above 3 GHz (wavelength less than 10 centimeters).
What type of waves are found after radio waves and before infrared waves?
Microwaves
Do microwaves have a longer wavelength than radio waves?
No, microwaves have shorter wavelengths than radio waves. Radio waves have longer wavelengths, ranging from a few millimeters to hundreds of meters, while microwaves typically have wavelengths of a few centimeters to a few millimeters.
Do satellites normally use microwaves or radio waves?

What wave viabrates faster radio wave or microwaves?
Microwaves ARE radio waves, with frequencies above 3 GHz.
Which travels faster radio waves or microwaves?
-- Microwave ARE radio waves.-- All electromagnetic waves travel at the same speed, including radio, microwaves,heat, infrared radiation, light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays, gamma rays, and allthe others.
Microwaves are the radio waves with the frequency and energy?
highest
