How can yellow light ultraviolet waves and xrays be described?

they are electromagnetic. So they have an electromagnetic spectrum.


Does Ultraviolet have shorter wavelength than xrays?

No, X-rays have shorter wavelength than ultraviolet light. X-rays have wavelengths in the range of 0.01 to 10 nanometers, while ultraviolet light has wavelengths in the range of 10 to 400 nanometers.


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.


What are examples of electromagnetic energy?

Examples of electromagnetic energy are radio waves, Xrays, optical light waves, infrared waves, sunlight and lightening.


What is a range of electromagnetic waves placed in a certain order?

Well there is the Electromagnetic (EM) spectrum. Visible light is the light that we can see and they are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. On the EM spectrum there is radio/ TV, microwaves, infrared, ultraviolet (UV), xrays,and gamma rays.


Field which studies EMR including visible light xRays gamma rays and ultraviolet?

Radiometrythe science of quantifying the phenomena of electromagnetic radiation. In our context, we are interested in light, the limited range of electromagnetic radiation that is visible to the human eye, sometimes extended to the areas of infrared and ultraviolet. We also don't care about the quantum mechanical aspects of radiation. It will be enough to measure the physiologicallyperceiveable effects. For that purpose, we will often resort to the related field of photometry.


Is the velocity of X-rays constant?

Yes, all xrays travel at the speed of light.

What are 2 electromagnetic waves besides light?

Two other electromagnetic waves besides light are radio waves and microwaves. Radio waves are used for communication, such as in radios and cell phones, while microwaves are commonly used for cooking and in technologies like radar.


Why does x rays light get farther into your bodies than ultraviolet?

Xrays have smaller wavelengths, and can only been seen from the shadows it makes on xray paper. X-rays have a shorter wavelength than ultraviolet, thus making them smaller photons, hard x-radiation has a wavelength around .01 nanometers and ultraviolet has a wavelength around 10 nanometers at the shortest wavelength. This means it is easier for the smaller x-rays to penetrate the human body than ultraviolet wavelengths. 1000 nanometers = 1 micron, 1000000 microns = 1 millimeter


What is the electro-magetic spectrum?

gamma rays, xrays, uv light, visible light, infra red, microwaves, radio waves


Which types of electromagnetic radiation can be detected using telescopes on Earth?

Telescopes on Earth can detect a wide range of electromagnetic radiation, including radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays, and gamma rays. Different telescopes are designed to detect specific wavelengths within this range, allowing astronomers to study various objects in the universe.
