gamma ray

,

infrared wave

,

visible light wave

,

Back

microwave

Front

Speed of radio waves compared to light waves?

Back

less energy & frequency, but still the SAME speed as the speed of light (300,000,000 m/s)

Front

Wavelength and Frequency are related in that...

Back

when one increases, the other decreases (inversely proportional)
