Microwaves are radio waves. That name is given to radio waves atfrequencies above 3 GHz (wavelength less than 10 centimeters).
The wavelength of radio waves are on the magnitude of 10^4 meters, while gamma rays have a far shorter wavelength of around 10^-14. This implies that gamma rays carry a lot more energy than radio waves, due to their frequency being much higher than that of radio wave frequencies.
Radio waves do not emit visible light. Only light with wavelengths of roughly 4*10^-7 to 7*10^-7 meters are visible.
Radio waves and ultraviolet waves are the same physical phenomenon.The difference is that radio waves have a much greater wavelength.(That's equivalent to saying that they have a much lower frequency.)
Radio stations that broadcast in the AM to FM range transmit EM waves known justly as radio waves (EM waves with frequencies from 30 KHz to 300 MHz, or wavelengths from 10 km to 1 m).
Radio, radio is around 10^3 m and visible light is around .5 *10^-6 m.
Microwaves are radio waves. That name is given to radio waves atfrequencies above 3 GHz (wavelength less than 10 centimeters).
The frequency range that the radio waves can penetrate the human body is between 1Hz and 10 KHz. This frequency of the radio waves is however not dangerous.

No, infrared radiation falls between the visible and microwave regions of the electromagnetic spectrum, making it shorter in wavelength compared to radio waves and microwaves but longer than visible light.

Ultraviolet has a shorter wavelength than radio waves. Ultraviolet waves have shorter wavelengths ranging from about 10 nm to 400 nm, while radio waves have much longer wavelengths ranging from about 1 millimeter to over 100 kilometers.
The longest wavelength corresponds to long wave radio, I think the longest used is about 2000 meters. The shortest are gamma rays, which occur in radioactivity, these are from about 10-11 meters down.
Radio waves are amongst the shortest. Gamma and X rays are shorter. The long wave lengths are at the other end of the electromagnetic spectrum. These are called 'infra red,
Microwaves are the electromagnetic waves in a large part of the broad range usually called "radio waves".They're the radiation with wavelengths between about 1 mm and 10 cm, corresponding to frequenciesbetween 3 - 300 GHz.Interestingly ... the term "microwave" is officially not used for radio waves with wavelengthslonger than 10 cm (frequency below 3 GHz). If you hold to that official definition, then the microwaveoven ... operating at 2.45 GHz ... is using radio waves, but officially not using 'microwave' energy.
