What wavelengths are longer than light but shorter than radio waves?
Infrared light, microwaves and radio waves have wavelengths longer than visible light. Radio waves have the longest wavelength.
What electromagnetic wave has a wavelength greater than that of light?
Radio, microwaves, radar, and infrared radiation have.
What color light is emitted by radio waves?
Radio waves do not emit visible light. Only light with wavelengths of roughly 4*10^-7 to 7*10^-7 meters are visible.
How is a radio telescope different from a refracting telescope?
A radio telescope detects light in the form of radio waves and a refracting telescope detects light in the visible wavelengths
Which waves have shorter wavelengths radio waves or xrays?
X-rays have shorter wavelengths than radio, heat, infra-red, visible light, and ultra-violet.
What are the differences between xray and visible light?
The X-rays have shorter wavelengths ... shorter than the shortest wave to which the eye responds.
What has the longer wavelengths light waves or radio waves?
Radio, radio is around 10^3 m and visible light is around .5 *10^-6 m.
Who have longer wavelengths visible light or radio waves?
The longest radio wave used for communication is around 3 millimeters long. The shortest visible wavelength of light is around 0.0004 millimeters long.
What telescope does not use visual light energy?
Radio telescopes and infra-red telescopes operate at longer wavelengths/lower frequencies than visible light. Ultraviolet telescopes operate at shorter wavelengths/higher frequencies than visible light.
What is radio astromony?
astronomy using radio waves, rather than visible light. visible light and radio waves are essentially the same, only radio waves have a much longer wavelength. not everything emits light in the visible band, many otherwise invisible objects can only be detected using extreme wavelengths.
Do radio waves microwaves and waves all have longer wavelengths than visible light?
Radio and microwaves are longer than visible light. So are heat (infrared) waves. Ultraviolet waves are shorter than visible light. So are X-rays and gamma rays.
Do radio wave microwave and ultraviolet waves all have longer wavelengths than visible light?
Radio and microwaves are longer than visible light. So are heat (infrared) waves. Ultraviolet waves are shorter than visible light. So are X-rays and gamma rays.
