Question

rank these electromagnetic waves on the basis of their wavelength.
rank from longest to shortest. to rank items as equivalent, overlap them.
view available hint(s)
infrared light x ray am radio wave fm radio wave yellow light green light
longest shortest
the correct ranking cannot be determined.

Explanation:

The electromagnetic spectrum from longest to shortest wavelength is: radio waves (AM and FM), infrared, visible light (with red being the longest in visible and violet the shortest among visible, and green and yellow are in between), and X - rays. AM and FM are both radio waves, but AM has a longer wavelength than FM. Among visible light, the order of decreasing wavelength is red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet.

Answer:

AM radio wave, FM radio wave, infrared light, yellow light, green light, X ray
