Question

Verified Solution • 2025–26 Session moderate

Which is the correct ascending order of wavelengths?

A $\lambda$ visible < $\lambda$ X-ray < $\lambda$ gamma-ray < $\lambda$ microwave
B $\lambda$ gamma-ray < $\lambda$ X-ray < $\lambda$ visible < $\lambda$ microwave
C $\lambda$ X-ray < $\lambda$ gamma-ray < $\lambda$ visible < $\lambda$ microwave
D $\lambda$ microwave < $\lambda$ visible < $\lambda$ gamma-ray < $\lambda$ X-ray

Accepted Answer

Wavelength of microwave is maximum then visible light then X-rays and then gamma rays so the correct order will be

$\lambda$ _gamma-ray < $\lambda$ _Xray < $\lambda$ _visible < $\lambda$ _microwave
