List the following types of electromagnetic radiation in order of decreasing energy per photon. microwaves, visible light, gamma rays, radio waves microwaves, gamma rays, visible light, radio waves gamma rays, visible light, microwaves, radio waves gamma rays, microwaves, visible light, radio waves

Answer 1

In increasing order of frequency:

radio waves < microwaves< visible light < gamma rays

In increasing order of energy per photon:

radio waves < microwaves< visible light < gamma rays

Step-by-step explanation:

Electromagnetic waves can transfer energy in the space as well. Electromagnetic spectrum is a range of radiation having different frequency. The radiation which has more frequency has more energy but smaller wavelength. Gamma rays have maximum frequency where as radio waves have smaller frequency and radiation.

Answer 2

a) radio < microwaves < visible < gamma

Step-by-step explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves produced by oscillations of the electric and magnetic fields, so light speeds and must comply with the relationship of the wave speed

v = λ f

Name Wavelength Frequency

Radio waves Km 10⁵

Microwaves cm 10¹⁰

Visible light μm 10¹⁴

Gamma rays pm 10¹⁹

All waves also meet the Planck energy equation

E = h f

h is the constant of Planck 6.6 10 -34 J s (4.136 10-15 eV-s), the unit of electron volts is very like for the waves of greater energy we substitute the frequencies and we calculate

Name Frequency Energy( J) Energy (eV)

Gamma ray 10¹⁹ 10⁻¹⁵ 10⁺⁴

Visible 10¹⁴ 10⁻²⁰ 10⁻¹

Microwave 10¹⁰ 10⁻¹⁴ 10⁻⁵

Radio waves 10⁵ 10⁻²⁹ 10⁻¹⁰

You can see that frequency and energy are proportional
