7 types of electromagnetic waves from lowest to highest frequency
Seven Electromagnetic waves in increasing order of their frequencies are as follows
Radio Waves < Micro Waves < Infrared Waves< Visible Spectrum < Ultraviolet rays < X rays < Rays
This can be explained by using the Electromagnetic Spectrum
In Electromagnetic Spectrum the waves are arranged in the increasing order of their energy which is given by the equation (1)
.....(1)
E = Energy
h = Planck's Constant
= Frequency of electromagnetic wave
Based on the classification of the Energy or Frequency ( as E α ) the electromagnetic waves are classified in 7 categories in increasing order of their Energy or Frequency
Radio Waves < Micro Waves < Infrared Waves< Visible Spectrum < Ultraviolet rays < X rays < Rays
