If λ_v, λ_x and λ_m represent the wavelengths of visible light,...

If

\lambda_v, \lambda_x

and

\lambda_m

represent the wavelengths of visible light, X-rays and microwaves respectively, then

Options

A $\lambda_m\gt\lambda_x\gt\lambda_v$
B $\lambda_v\gt\lambda_m\gt\lambda_x$
C $\lambda_m\gt\lambda_v\gt\lambda_x$
D $\lambda_v\gt\lambda_x\gt\lambda_m$

Correct answer

C. $\lambda_m\gt\lambda_v\gt\lambda_x$

Step-by-step solution

Wavelength order of given rays are listed below:

\lambda_x \lt \lambda_v \lt \lambda_m

or

\lambda_m\gt\lambda_v\gt\lambda_x

NOTE : Visible light, X-rays and microwaves are all electromagnetic waves.
