The range of electromagnetic waves placed in a certain order is called the?

Well there is the Electromagnetic (EM) spectrum. Visible light is the light that we can see and they are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. On the EM spectrum there is radio/ TV, microwaves, infrared, ultraviolet (UV), xrays,and gamma rays.


What is on electromagnetic wave?

Electromagnetic spectrum have Radio waves, Microwaves, Infrared, Visible light,Ultraviolet light, X-ray, and Gamma rays is the answer to your question do you get it.


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 are the pieces of light called?

electromagnetic spectrum


What electromagnetic wave is located between infrared radiation and ultraviolet radiation in the visible spectrum?

The term "electromagnetic" is the wrong term. The correct term is "photoelectric". Aslo the phrase between the infrared and ultraviolet should be stated: between the thresholds of infrared and ultra-violet light. So the correct question would be: What is the region of the photoelectric spectrum that lies between the thresholds of infrared and ultra-violet light? Answer: The visible light spectrum
