How are the different types of electromagnetic wave organized?
By frequency on the electromagnetic spectrum
The various types of electromagnetic radiation are distinguished from each other by their?
Electromagnetic waves are classified according to their wavelength and frequency and this classification is called electromagnetic spectrum.
How does the color of the light bulbs determine the amount of energy of the electromagnetic waves?
The "color" is really a wavelength. The electromagnetic spectrum determines this, every different wavelength has a corresponding color. Red being the longest, and violet being the shortest. This electromagnetic spectrum also determines whether it is visible, ultraviolet, infrared, and so on.
How is wavelength important in defining the regions of the electromagnetic spectrum?
All waves of the electromagnetic spectrum have the same speeds but different frequencies and wavelengths. So, wavelength is important for defining the regions in the electromagnetic spectrum (frequency would have been equally useful)
How do you know the speed of a electromagnetic wave in a vacuum?
The speed of electromagnetic waves in a vacuum is the same as the speed of light (which is, in itself an electromagnetic wave). It can be measured by finding the frequency and wavelength of two different waves, and then by that correlation, the speed of the waveform.
What is a chart that arranges into different categories according to wavelength?
electromagnetic spectrum
What does the electromagnetic spectrum have?
Electromagnetic spectrum have different electromagnetic waves classified orderly according to their wavelength or frequency.
How are the different types of electromagnetic wave organized?
By frequency on the electromagnetic spectrum
What is the property that creates the different kinds of electromagnetic waves?
wavelength
How does the electromagnetic spectrum organize the different types of energy waves?
The electromagnetic spectrum organizes different types of electromagnetic waves according to their wavelength or frequency.
How is visible light different from the other waves and rays on the electromagnetic spectrum?
It has a different wavelength and frequency.
What kind of waves are microwaves?
Electromagnetic waves, just like light, but with different frequency and wavelength.
What is a chart that arranges waves into different categories according to wavelengths?
electromagnetic spectrum
The various types of electromagnetic radiation are distinguished from each other by their?
Electromagnetic waves are classified according to their wavelength and frequency and this classification is called electromagnetic spectrum.
What characteristics are different between visible light and the portions of the electromagnetic spectrum the are not visible?
Frequency and so wavelength
Do different electromagnetic waves have different frequencies?
Yes. The shorter the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave, the higher its frequency is. Don't confuse frequency with velocity! All electromagnetic radiation travels at the same rate, C (3*10^8) m/s.
How does the color of the light bulbs determine the amount of energy of the electromagnetic waves?
The "color" is really a wavelength. The electromagnetic spectrum determines this, every different wavelength has a corresponding color. Red being the longest, and violet being the shortest. This electromagnetic spectrum also determines whether it is visible, ultraviolet, infrared, and so on.
