Electromagnetic Spectrum

The full range of frequencies of electromagnetic radiation, including radio waves, visible light, ultraviolet rays, X-rays, and gamma rays.

Frequency is the number of waves that pass a point in one second, measured in hertz (Hz).

Wavelength is the distance between two consecutive peaks of a wave, usually measured in meters.

They are inversely related; as the wavelength increases, the frequency decreases.

Visible light.

Radio waves are used for communication, including radio and television broadcasts.

X-rays are used in medical imaging to view the inside of the body.

Gamma rays are high-frequency electromagnetic waves used in cancer treatment and imaging.

Ultraviolet radiation is a type of electromagnetic radiation that comes from the sun and can cause skin damage.

Radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, gamma rays.
