Identify the electromagnetic waves whose wavelengths vary as (a) 10^(-12)m lt lambda lt 10^(-8)m (b) 10^(-3)m lt lambda lt 10^(-1)m Write one use for each.

Answer»

Solution :(a) ELECTROMAGNETIC waves of wavelengths range `10^(-12)m lt LAMBDA lt 10^(-8)m` are kwon as X - rays. These are used as diagnostic tool in medicine, for scientific research and crystallography.
(B) Electromagnetic waves of wavelengths `10^(-3) lt lambda lt 10^(-1)m` are the microwaves which are used in radar, microwavetelecommunication and MICROWAVE ovens etc.
