Question

microwaves
visible light
2 use the spectrum to choose the best answer.
what has the higher frequency - gamma rays or x - rays?
gamma waves
x - rays

1. use the spectrum to choose the best answer.

the longer the wavelength, the higher or lower the frequency?
lower
higher

Explanation:

The electromagnetic spectrum shows that gamma rays have a shorter wavelength than X - rays. Since frequency \(f\) and wavelength \(\lambda\) are inversely related (\(c = f\lambda\), where \(c\) is the speed of light), shorter wavelength means higher frequency. For the relationship between wavelength and frequency, using \(c = f\lambda\) (constant \(c\)), if \(\lambda\) increases, \(f=\frac{c}{\lambda}\) decreases.

Answer:

1. gamma waves
2. lower
