Analysing Electromagnetic Waves


1. Electromagnetic waves consist of vibration of magnetic field and electric field which are perpendicular to each other.

2. Therefore, Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves.

3. The velocity of electromagnetic waves in vacuum is 3 X 10 (8)(to the power of eight) meter per second.

4. Differences in wavelength between electromagnetic waves producer a spectrum of electromagnetic waves.

Electromagnetic waves sorted starting from High Frequency to the Lowest Frequenct

Gamma rays

X-Rays

Ultraviolet

Visible Light

Infrared

Micro Waves

Radio Waves




Hope you all have an idea :)
