Answer:

gamma rays > X-rays > ultraviolet radiation > visible light > infrared > radio waves.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are those waves that require no material medium for propagation. They can travel through space and they all move at the speed of light.

Electromagnetic waves are composed of both electric and magnetic fields which are mutually at right angles to each other.

The order of decreasing energy of electromagnetic waves is;

gamma rays > X-rays > ultraviolet radiation > visible light > infrared > radio waves.
