Order the waves from shortest wavelength (1) to longest wavelength (4). Gamma rays: Microwaves: Radio: Visible light:

Respuesta :

Gamma rays:  1

Microwaves:  3

Radio:  4

Visible light: 2

For edg..

Explanation:

The distance between two consecutive crest and trough is called the wavelength of a wave. The lower most part of the wave is called the trough while the upper most part is called the crest of the wave.

The wavelength of different waves are :

(1) Gamma rays - 10⁻¹² m

(2) Microwaves - 10⁻² m

(3) Radio waves - 10³ m

(4) Visible light - 0.5 × 10⁻⁶ m  

So, the correct order of the waves from shortest to the longest wavelength is

(1) Gamma rays

(2) Visible rays

(3) Microwave

(4) Radio waves
