Question

For the following types of electromagnetic radiation, how do the wavelength, frequency, and photon energy change as one goes from the top of the list to the bottom?
a. radio waves
b. infared radiation
c. visible light
d. ultraviolet radiation
e. gamma radiation

Answer 1

Answer:

Wavelength, frequency and the photon energy changes as the one goes across the ranges of the electro-magnetic radiations.

Explanation:

Electro-magnetic radiations may be defined as the form of energy that is radiated or given by the electro-magnetic radiations. The visible light that we can see is the one of the electro-magnetic radiations. Other forms are the radio waves, gamma waves, UV rays, infrared radiations, etc.

The wavelength of the radiations decreases as we go from a. radio waves -- b. infrared radiation -- c. visible light -- d. ultraviolet radiation -- e. gamma radiation.

The frequency of the radiations increases when we move from a. radio waves -- b. infrared radiation -- c. visible light -- d. ultraviolet radiation -- e. gamma radiation.

The photon energy of the radiations increases when we move from a. radio waves -- b. infrared radiation -- c. visible light -- d. ultraviolet radiation -- e. gamma radiation.
