Consider the following electromagnetic radiations: (I) Microwaves (II) Ultraviolet rays (III) Infrared rays (IV) Gamma rays Which of the following represents the correct descending order of their wavelengths?
Options
- A(I) > (III) > (II) > (IV)
- B(IV) > (II) > (III) > (I)
- C(I) > (II) > (III) > (IV)
- D(III) > (I) > (IV) > (II)
Correct answer
A. (I) > (III) > (II) > (IV)
Step-by-step solution
The electromagnetic spectrum in the order of decreasing wavelength is: Radio waves > Microwaves > Infrared rays > Visible light > Ultraviolet rays > X-rays > Gamma rays From the given options, the correct descending order of their wavelengths is: Microwaves (I) > Infrared rays (III) > Ultraviolet rays (II) > Gamma rays (IV) Answer: (I) > (III) > (II) > (IV)
