Which types of electromagnetic waves have higher frequencies than the waves that make up ultraviolet light? check all that apply.
-radio waves
-infrared light
-microwaves
-gamma rays
-visible light
-x-rays

gamma rays

Explanation:

The frequency of ultra-violet rays lies between . The electromagnetic waves which have higher frequency and thus higher energy than ultraviolet rays are X-rays and gamma rays.

In the options only gamma rays is given. Gamma rays have frequencies greater than . These have smallest wavelength but highest frequencies.

Gamma Rays and X-Rays have higher frequencies than ultraviolet light.

Explanation:

We have several types of electromagnetic waves. We need to identify which of them have higher frequencies than the waves that make up ultraviolet light.

As we can see in the image attached, usually Ultraviolet light ranges from 380 nm to 10 nm. It means from 10^15 Hz - 10^16 Hz in frequency. We need to find which of them have higher values for frequency.Only X-ray and Gamma-Ray could have frequencies higher than 10^15 Hz.

X-Rays: Frequency 10^19 Hz.

Gamma Rays: Frequency 10^27 Hz.

Finally, we can conclude that Gamma Rays and X-Rays have higher frequencies than ultraviolet light.
