Above a wave's wavelength is its frequency, which represents the number of wave cycles that pass a fixed point in a unit of time. Frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional in that as wavelength decreases, frequency increases, and vice versa.

Which electromagnetic waves has the longest wavelength?

"radio waves" have longest wavelength..


Which is longer-wavelength of infrasound or ultrasound?

Infrasound has longer wavelengths compared to ultrasound. Infrasound waves have frequencies below the range of human hearing (below 20 Hz), while ultrasound waves have frequencies above the range of human hearing (above 20 kHz), leading to their differences in wavelength.


Compared to the wavelength of ultraviolet waves the wavelength of infrared waves is?

The wavelength of ultraviolet waves is shorter than the wavelength of infrared waves. Ultraviolet waves have wavelengths ranging from 10 nm to 400 nm, while infrared waves have wavelengths ranging from 700 nm to 1 mm.


How does the wavelength of infrared (IR) compare with the wavelength of Ultraviolet (UV) waves?

IR waves are longer than UV waves.


What affect if any does the increasing the speed of the plunger have pn the wavelength of the waves?

Increasing the speed of the plunger will not affect the wavelength of the waves. The wavelength of the waves is determined by the frequency of the source that is creating the waves, not by the speed of the medium through which the waves are traveling.


Why frequency of microwaves is longer than radio waves?

Microwaves are radio waves. That name is given to radio waves atfrequencies above 3 GHz (wavelength less than 10 centimeters).


What kind of wave's wavelength compare to a cell?

a sound waves wavelength compares to a cell by comparing the waves one by the other. cells compared to wavelength are electromagnetic waves lol:)


How long is wavelength?

A wavelength is the distance between 2 successive waves (sound waves, ocean waves, or any other wave.)


If the frequency of the waves produced by a vibrating object increases how does the wavelength of the waves produced change?

The wavelength decreases. Frequency and wavelength are inversely related.


What is the longest wavelength on a electromagnetic spectrum?

The electromagnetic waves with the longest wavelength are called radio waves.


True or false the farther apart waves are the greater their wavelength?

True. Waves with a greater wavelength will have a longer distance between each wave crest compared to waves with a shorter wavelength.


Do radio waves have short or long wavelength?

Short wavelength
