  • Electromagnetic Spectrum: Which Radiation Has the Longest Wavelength?
    The answer is 4) infrared radiation. Here's why:

    * Electromagnetic Spectrum: Electromagnetic radiation, including light, is characterized by its wavelength. The electromagnetic spectrum arranges these wavelengths from shortest to longest.

    * Order of Wavelengths:

    * Gamma Rays: Shortest wavelength (highest energy)

    * X-rays: Shorter than ultraviolet

    * Ultraviolet: Shorter than visible light

    * Visible Light: The colors we see (violet has the shortest visible wavelength, red has the longest)

    * Infrared: Longer than visible light

    * Microwaves: Longer than infrared

    * Radio Waves: Longest wavelength (lowest energy)

    Therefore, infrared radiation has the longest wavelength among the options provided.
