Answers & Comments
Answer:
1. Electromagnetic waves with shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies include ultraviolet light, X-rays, and gamma rays. Electromagnetic waves with longer wavelengths and lower frequencies include infrared light, microwaves, and radio and television waves.
2. Violet - shortest wavelength, around 400-420 nanometers with highest frequency. They carry the most energy.
Indigo - 420 - 440 nm
Blue - 440 - 490 nm
Green - 490 - 570 nm
Yellow - 570 - 585 nm
Orange - 585 - 620 nm
Red - longest wavelength, at around 620 - 780 nanometers with lowest frequency
3. Wavelength,Amplitude
