The electromagnetic spectrum is ordered by frequency (and wavelength). Frequency and energy are directly proportional, while wavelength is inversely proportional. The order from highest frequency to lowest frequency is: Gamma rays, X-rays, Ultraviolet, Visible light, Infrared, Microwaves, Radio waves.
Arrange the following electromagnetic radiations in decreasing order of their frequencies. 1. Gamma rays 2. Ultraviolet rays 3. Radio waves 4. X-rays Select the correct answer from the code given below : Code :
