Answer : The order of electromagnetic waves from highest to lowest energy is:

\text{gamma-rays}>\text{x-rays}>\text{ultraviolet-rays}>\text{infrared-rays}>\text{microwaves}>\text{radio-waves}

Explanation :

Electromagnetic waves : It is a wave in which two vectors are vibrating mutually perpendicular to each other and in direction of the wave. The two vectors are electric field and magnetic field.

The gamma-rays, x-rays, ultraviolet-rays, infrared-rays, microwaves and radio-waves are the electromagnetic waves.

The increasing order of electromagnetic waves in terms of wavelength will be,

\text{gamma-rays}

As, E=\frac{hc}\lambda}

According to the formula we conclude that, the energy is inversely proportional to the wavelength.

That means higher the wavelength, lower will be energy and vice-versa.

The decreasing order or highest to lowest of electromagnetic waves in terms of energy will be,

\text{gamma-rays}>\text{x-rays}>\text{ultraviolet-rays}>\text{infrared-rays}>\text{microwaves}>\text{radio-waves}

the perimeter of rectangle is 66 cm and the width is half of its length.What are the length and the width of the rectangle?
nikitadnepr [17]
2W+2L=66
W=1/2L

2(1/2L)+2L=66

Simplifies to L+2L=66
Simplifies to 3L=66
Or L=22.

If W=1/2L, then W =1/2(22).
W=11.

To check our work, 2W+2L=66.
2(11)+2(22)=66.
22+44=66
66=66 Check.

Alex Ar [27]
Many North African nations practice Islam because many Muslims traded in that region, so the North Africans converted to Islam, whereas those in Sub-Saharan African nations were more prone to Christianity because of the trade they did with Europeans.
