The electromagnetic spectrum covers all possible wavelengths and frequencies of radiation. From lowest frequency (longest wavelength) to highest frequency (shortest wavelength) radiation: radio waves → microwaves → infrared waves → visible light → ultraviolet light → X-rays → gamma rays.
Which of the following is the correct order for types of radiation from lowest to highest frequency?
visible light → ultraviolet light → radio waves |
|
radio waves → visible light → gamma rays |
|
microwaves → radio waves → visible light |
|
infrared waves → microwaves → ultraviolet light |
