The intensity of a beam can be measured by the power contained in a square metre cross-section of the beam. For example the Sun's light has an intensity of about 1400 watts per square metre.

What type of wave is EM radiation?
EM radiation is short for electromagnetic radiation. It is a wave in the electric and magnetic fields.EM radiation is short for electromagnetic radiation. It is a wave in the electric and magnetic fields.EM radiation is short for electromagnetic radiation. It is a wave in the electric and magnetic fields.EM radiation is short for electromagnetic radiation. It is a wave in the electric and magnetic fields.
What equipment to use to measure wavelength?
Electromagnetic radiation is just light. You can measure light with a light meter, which tells you intensity, or a camera sensitive to different frequencies. You can also use a magnetometer (Gaussmeter) to measure the B field component or a voltmeter to measure the E field component.Your eyes are instrumentstha measure EM radiation between 300 and 700 microns. We call this type of EM radiation "visible light." Other detectors of EM radiation ar CCD chips in digital cameras, and IR detectors in appliances with rerote controls.spectroscope?
What is the name for a particle of em radiation?
Photon - you can think of it as a bundle of waves
What is the highest frequency part of EM spectrum?
That's the gamma radiation.
What happens when you increase electromagnetic wave?
To increase the intensity, if that's what you mean, more energy is required. That would also mean that the electromagnetic wave carries more energy.
What are spectrographs?
Spectrographs are instruments that separate EM radiation (primarily light) into a spectrum of frequencies and record the data. The intensity of radiation at the different frequencies can be used to ascertain information about the source of the radiation or the material through which it is passing.
What does electromagnetic have to do with EM radiation?
EM is short for electromagnetic.

At what speed does all EM radiation travel at?
In a vacuum, 3x10^8 ms^-1. Basically the speed of light, it is EM radiation afterall.
What type of em radiation do conventional ovens use?
infrared radiation ;)<3
What type of em radiation has shortest wavelength and most energy?

What is the scientific term for light?
"electro-magnetic radiation" "electro magnetic radiation" em radiation
What distance does electromagnetic radiation travel in 10.7?
In 10.7 femtoseconds, em radiation will travel 3.208 E -6 meters. EM radiation travels at the speed of light, or 299, 792, 458 m/s.
From Where does the energy carried by an EM wave come?
The electromagnetic (EM) spectrum is a name for different types of radiation. Most radiation comes from the sun. Want more info?
