Hi!

Microwave frequency is the top end of the radio wave frequencies.

The radio wave frequency is part of the electromagnetic spectrum (EM spectrum) - and there the frequencies carry on up to infra red ... blue light ... etc.

Do microwaves have the highest frequency?

No. Several other electromagnetic waves - including visible light - have a higher frequency.


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.


Are microwaves a type of radio wave?

Yes, microwaves are a type of electromagnetic wave, similar to radio waves but with a higher frequency and shorter wavelength. They are used in microwave ovens to heat food by exciting water molecules, causing them to vibrate and generate heat.


Which has higher frequency microwaves or tv waves?

In the entire spectrum of electromagnetic waves, microwaves and radiowaves (microwaves are sometimes classified under radio waves), have the longest wavelengths, and the lowest frequencies (and therefore, energy).


Microwaves are the radio waves with the frequency and energy?

Which has a higher frequency gamma rays or radio rays?

Gamma rays have a higher frequency than radio waves. Gamma rays have the shortest wavelength and highest frequency in the electromagnetic spectrum, while radio waves have the longest wavelength and lowest frequency.


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 satellites normally use microwaves or radio waves?

Microwaves are radio waves.Most satellites communicate in microwave radio frequency bands.


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).


Which has the lowest frequency in the electromagnetic spectrum microwaves radio waves visible light or gamma rays?

Radio waves have the lowest frequency in all of the electromagnetic spectrum. The next higher frequency energy is microwave, visible light including ultraviolet, infrared, X-ray, then gamma ray


How are microwaves different from radio waves?

"Microwave" is the loose term used to describe the higher-frequency portion of the general category of radio waves. The closest thing to a formal definition says that "microwave" is anything with a frequency higher than 3 GHz (wavelength less than 10 centimeters).


What is the radiation source for microwaves waves?

Microwave frequency radio waves are usually produced by a MAGNETRON.
