What is the entire electromagnetic spectrum frequencies called?

The entire electromagnetic spectrum frequencies, from the lowest to the highest frequencies, are collectively called the electromagnetic spectrum.


What is the electromagnetic frequencies entire range called?

The entire range of electromagnetic frequencies is called the electromagnetic spectrum. This spectrum includes all forms of electromagnetic radiation, from radio waves to gamma rays.


The electromagnetic spectrum is the entire range of?

The electromagnetic spectrum is the entire range of electromagnetic radiation, including radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays. Each type of radiation has a different wavelength and frequency.


Is the electromagnetic spectrum the same as the electromagnetic wave?

No. The spectrum means the entire range of wavelengths that electromagnetic waves can have, ranging from x-rays and shorter waves right up to the kilometre-long waves used for submarine communications and long-range navigation.


The entire range of em waves is called the?

The total of all electromagnetic waves is called the electromagnetic spectrum. The electromagnetic spectrum includes radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light waves, ultraviolet radiation, x-rays, and gamma rays. Only visible light waves, which humans see as the band of colors from red to violet, are the portion of the spectrum visible to the human eye, although many other life forms are sensitive to infrared and possibly to other segments the spectrum.

What does the spectrum in the electromagnetic spectrum do?

I suppose you mean the visible spectrum, only a small part of the entire electromagnetic spectrum. The visible spectrum is basically all of the colors the human eye can detect.

The visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum represent a large portion of the spectrum?

Yes, the visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum consists of wavelengths between approximately 400 to 700 nanometers. This range is a small portion of the entire electromagnetic spectrum, which includes radio waves, microwaves, infrared, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays.


What is the electromagnetic spectrum.?

The electromagnetic (EM) spectrum is the entire range of frequencies that electromagnetic radiation can have. The EM spectrum is divided into sections based on the common characteristics that certain frequency ranges have. These sections are, in order from low to high frequency, radio waves, microwaves, infrared waves, visible light (which from low to high frequency is further divided into red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet), ultraviolet waves, X-rays, and gamma rays. You can think of the EM spectrum as an invisible rainbow with visible light being a small part of it. And, like a rainbow, the edges of the divided sections are blurry; i.e. there is no exact frequency where one can say, for example, that this wave is no longer an X-ray, but is instead a gamma ray. it is waves of light in order of their wavelengths and frequencies APEX: A chart of frequencies of light waves.
