Electromagnetic spectrum
- Electromagnetic spectrum in simple terms is defined as the range of all types of electromagnetic radiation.
- It is a range of frequencies, wavelengths, and photon energies covering frequencies from below 1 hertz to above 1025 Hz corresponding to wavelengths that are a few kilometers to a fraction of the size of an atomic nucleus in the spectrum of electromagnetic waves.
- The entire range is given by radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays, gamma rays, and cosmic rays in the increasing order of frequency and decreasing order of wavelength.
- Gamma-ray has a minimum wavelength and radio wave has a maximum wavelength.
- The frequency of the wave is inversely proportional to the wavelength.
Explanation:
The gamma rays have a minimum wavelength and maximum frequency.
