Microwaves (such as the world famous 2.4Ghz variety in a kitchen microwave oven) have a longer wavelength than visible light Red being 430THz and violet being 750THz.
c=fλ (c is the speed of light 300,000,000 m/s, f frequency in Hertz and λ in metres)
2.4GHz has a wavelength of a few centimetres. This is why you need a turnplate in a microwave to avoid the hotspots that are only a few centimeters apart.
What else can I help you with?
What electromagnetic wave has a wavelength greater than that of light?
Radio, microwaves, radar, and infrared radiation have.
Do radio waves microwaves and ultraviolet waves all have longer wavelength than visible light?
Radio and microwaves are longer than visible light. So are heat (infrared) waves. Ultraviolet waves are shorter than visible light. So are X-rays and gamma rays.
What is the ascending order of the eight electromagnetic spectrum waves base from their wavelength?
Shortest wavelength is gamma rays. Next longer wavelength is with Xrays. Then Ultraviolet, visible radiations, infra red, microwaves, radio waves with shorter wavelength and radio waves with longer wavelength
Which has higher frequencies microwaves or visible lights?
Visible light has shorter wavelengths than microwaves. Microwaves, which might be considered the highest energy radio waves, have a longer wavelength (and a lower frequency) than visible light.
What are micro-waves average amplitude?
The average amplitude of microwaves is typically around 1 millimeter. Microwaves have a longer wavelength compared to visible light, which corresponds to lower frequencies and energy levels.
Which waves are shorter than microwaves and longer than visible light?
Infrared Light has a longer wavelength than visible and a shorter wavelength than microwaves.

What has a wavelength longer than visible light?
Assuming you mean other electromagnetic waves: that would be infrared radiation, microwaves, and radio waves.
Why is microwaves found between infrared and radio waves?
the electromagnetic spectrum (all existing radiation) is organized in order of shortest wavelength from the left to longest wavelength from the right. Infrared waves, felt as heat, are slightly longer than the visible light spectrum, and microwaves longer still, and radio waves longer still.
What wavelengths are longer than light but shorter than radio waves?
Infrared light, microwaves and radio waves have wavelengths longer than visible light. Radio waves have the longest wavelength.
What has wave lengths longer than the wave lengths of visible light?
Radio waves, microwaves and infrared light have a longer wavelength and lower frequency than visible light.
What kind of waves are microwaves?
Electromagnetic waves, just like light, but with different frequency and wavelength.
Which has higher frequencies microwaves or visible lights?
Visible light has shorter wavelengths than microwaves. Microwaves, which might be considered the highest energy radio waves, have a longer wavelength (and a lower frequency) than visible light.
What are micro-waves average amplitude?
The average amplitude of microwaves is typically around 1 millimeter. Microwaves have a longer wavelength compared to visible light, which corresponds to lower frequencies and energy levels.
Do microwaves have a longer wavelength than radio waves?
No, microwaves have shorter wavelengths than radio waves. Radio waves have longer wavelengths, ranging from a few millimeters to hundreds of meters, while microwaves typically have wavelengths of a few centimeters to a few millimeters.
