Yes, radar waves are radio waves and too long for the eye to see (off the red end of the visible spectrum) and X rays are too short to see (off the blue/violet end of the visible spectrum).

What parts of the electromagnetic spectrum do you use the most?

We primarily use the visible light and radio waves parts of the electromagnetic spectrum. Visible light is essential for imaging and observation, while radio waves are widely used for communication and radar applications.


Electromagnetic spectrum that Is commonly employed in land surveys?

The electromagnetic spectrum commonly used in land surveys includes visible light, infrared, and microwave wavelengths. Visible light is used for traditional surveying methods like theodolites and total stations, while infrared and microwave wavelengths are utilized in techniques such as LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) and synthetic aperture radar (SAR) for remote sensing and mapping applications.


What is a basic difference between sunlight and natural light?

Raw sunlight composed of wide range of electro-magentic spectrum this include infrared spectrum (far left) to gammy ray spectrum (far right). Earth's atmosphere and magnetic shield filter most of the harmful far right spectrum and only allows upto Ultra Violet range. This resulting in natural light. So I guess you can say natural light is what ever sunlight that gets passed through the atmosphere and the magnetic shield. However, we gets to see only a small portion of the spectrum of natural light called visible spectrum. There are lot of different behavior within the electro-magnetic spectrum. Some waves bounch off the atmosphere and ground and it is used for radar. Some waves curve around objects and we call it radio.


What are the regions of electromagnetic spectrum?

Radio waves, Radar, Microwaves, Infared, Ultraviolet, X-rays, and Gamma Rays


What are the properties of electromagnetic waves and interactions that make Doppler radar possible?

Doppler radar wouldn't be possible if the speed of light were infinite. Also it wouldn't be possible if the electromagnetic waves didn't reflect on objects. Also it helps a lot if those electromagnetic waves have a particular frequency as opposed to a wide spectrum. --Some person named Adrian who did the research

Are radar waves too long to be seen?

Yes. The visible spectrum of light is much shorter than the shortest radar (radio) wave.

Which waves have lower frequency radar waves or visible waves?

Radar waves have a lower frequency that light waves.The frequency of a light wave is related to wavelength and speed by the equation c = »½. The color of a light wave is also determined by the frequency. The amplitude and brightness are not related to the frequency.


What instrument is used to monitor weather conditions from the outer space?

Many instruments can be used The visible light spectrum cameras Infrared cameras Spectrometers Radar


Which has the longer wavelength radar or light?

Radar waves typically have longer wavelengths than visible light. Radar waves can have wavelengths ranging from a few millimeters to several meters, while visible light wavelengths range from about 400 to 700 nanometers.

What makes a stealth plane unable to be seen on radar?

Stealth aircraft are extremely hard to detect on radar because they use a variety of advanced technologies that reduce reflection/emission of radar, infrared, visible light, radio-frequency spectrum, and audio. Early stealth aircraft were aerodynamically unstable.


What determines location of precipitation and clouds?

A combination of visible light imagery and weather radar.


Radar waves are too long or too short to be seen?

Radar waves are too long to be seen by the human eye. They have wavelengths ranging from a few millimeters to several meters, which are beyond the visible light spectrum. However, radar technology allows us to detect and visualize these waves for various applications like weather forecasting and aircraft navigation.
