Question

Which of the following has larger wavelength in electromagnetic spectrum?

• A. Gamma rays
• B. UV rays
• C. X-rays
• D. Radiowaves

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

To solve the problem, we need to identify which electromagnetic wave has the largest wavelength among the given options.

1. Electromagnetic Spectrum Overview:
The electromagnetic spectrum is arranged in order of increasing wavelength (and decreasing frequency) as follows:
Gamma rays < X-rays < Ultraviolet (UV) rays < Visible light < Infrared < Microwaves < Radio waves

2. Comparing the Options:
- Gamma rays: Very short wavelength (smallest)
- X-rays: Slightly longer than gamma rays
- UV rays: Longer than X-rays but still short
- Radio waves: Longest wavelength in the entire electromagnetic spectrum

Final Answer:
The electromagnetic wave with the largest wavelength is Radiowaves (Option D).
