Question
Visible light represents a very small portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. Radiation to the left in the image, such as microwaves, has a longer wavelength than visible light. Radiation to the right has a shorter wavelength than is observable.
Which radiation has a higher frequency than visible light?
Responses
A X-RaysX-Rays
B Infrared lightInfrared light
C microwave radiationmicrowave radiation
D the frequency of all radiation is the samethe
1 answer
The radiation that has a higher frequency than visible light is:
A. X-Rays
X-rays have a shorter wavelength than visible light, which corresponds to a higher frequency. Infrared light and microwave radiation have longer wavelengths and therefore lower frequencies than visible light.
