Which is the correct ascending order of wavelengths?
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(\lambda_{\text {gamma-ray }}<\lambda_{ X \text {-ray }}<\lambda_{\text {visible }}<\lambda_{\text {microwave }}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
From electromagnetic wave spectrum.
\(\lambda\) increases \(\longrightarrow\)
| \(\gamma\)-ray | \(x\)-rays | ultra violet | visible | infrared | microwave | Radio wave |
\(\lambda_{\text {ganma-ray }}<\lambda_{ X \text {-ray }}<\lambda_{\text {visible }}<\lambda_{\text {microwave }}\)
