Arrange the following electromagnetic waves in decreasing order of their wavelength respectively.
A. Gamma Rays
B. UV Rays
C. Infrared Rays
D. X-Rays
E. Microwaves
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
- A E>B>D>A>C
- B E>C>D>B>A
- C E>C>B>D>A
- D A>D>B>C>E
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) E>C>B>D>A
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The order of the electromagnetic spectrum from longest to shortest wavelength is: Microwaves (E) > Infrared (C) > UV (B) > X-rays (D) > Gamma rays (A). This arrangement follows the principle that wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency and energy. C) E > C > B > D > A.
