🌍Electromagnetic waves include radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, x-rays, and gamma rays.
📐The wavelength of electromagnetic waves decreases from radio waves to gamma rays, while the frequency increases.
⚡️Frequency is the number of cycles or vibrations that occurs in one unit of time, expressed in hertz.
💡Energy is the capacity to do work, expressed in joules.
📏Wavelength is the distance between corresponding points of two consecutive waves, expressed in meters.
What are the seven types of electromagnetic waves?
—The seven types of electromagnetic waves are radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, x-rays, and gamma rays.
How are wavelength and frequency related in electromagnetic waves?
—As the wavelength of electromagnetic waves decreases, the frequency increases.
What is the definition of frequency?
—Frequency is the number of cycles or vibrations that occurs in one unit of time and is expressed in hertz.
What is the definition of energy in the context of electromagnetic waves?
—Energy is the capacity to do work and is expressed in joules.
How is wavelength defined in the context of electromagnetic waves?
—Wavelength is the distance between corresponding points of two consecutive waves and is expressed in meters.
