Question

A few different types of electromagnetic radiation are listed in the table below. Complete the table by ordering these types of radiation by increasing frequency, wavelength, and energy per photon. For example, select "1" in the second column for the type of radiation with the lowest frequency, "2 for the type of radiation with the next higher frequency, and so forth type of radiation order of frequency order of wavelength order of energy green light (Choose one) (Choose one) (Choose one) infrared radiation (Choose one) (Choose one) (Choose one) X-rays (Choose one) (Choose one) V (Choose one) blue ight (Choose one) (Choose one) (Choose one) X

Answer 1

Order of energy is:

infrared radiation < green light < blue light < x-rays

Energy is directly related to frequency.

So, order of frequency is same as energy

infrared radiation < green light < blue light < x-rays

Energy is inversely related to wavelength.

So, order of wavelength is opposite to energy

x-rays < blue light < green light < infrared radiation

Answer:

green light: 2, 3, 2

infrared radiation: 1, 4, 1

x-rays: 4, 1, 4

blue light: 3, 2, 3
