Answer to Question #254696 in Electricity and Magnetism for cece

Question

describe the electromagnetic spectrum in your own words using wavelength and frequency.

Answer 1

Electromagnetic spectrum:-

The electromagnetic spectrum (EMS) is the general name given to the known range of electromagnetic radiation. Wavelengths increase from approximately 10-18 m to 100 km, and this corresponds to frequencies decreasing from 3 × 10²⁶ Hz to 3 ×10³ Hz.

Wave length and frequency relationship

$\upsilon=\frac{c}{\lambda}$

Where $c=3\times10^8m/sec$

c=light velocity
