How does wavelength of radio wave compare to the wavelength of a visible light wave?
1 answer:
Answer:
The wavelength of radio waves is much longer than the wavelength of visible light waves
Explanation:
Electromagnetic waves are periodic oscillations of the electric and the magnetic fields, occuring in a plane perpendicular to the direction of motion the wave.
Electromagnetic waves are the only waves able to travel in a vacuum; they travel at the speed of light:
Electromagnetic waves are also classified into 7 different types, according to their wavelength/frequency. From longest to shortest wavelength, we have: (with the corresponding wavelength written in the brackets):
Radio waves (>1 m)
Microwaves (1 mm - 1 m)
Infrared (750 nm - 1 mm)
Visible light (380 nm - 750 nm)
Ultraviolet (10 nm - 380 nm)
X-rays (0.01 nm - 10 nm)
Gamma rays (<0.01 nm)
So from the table, we can see that:
The wavelength of radio waves is much longer than the wavelength of visible light waves.

here we will have
so it is 20.1 m below the surface

Here net buoyancy force due to water and oil will balance the weight of the block
so here we will have
so it is 3.48 cm below the interface
