The wavelengths of radio waves are long compared to other types of
electromagnetic waves—they range in length from 10,000 kilometers to
less than a meter.
Human-made radio waves are generated when electrons, which are
negatively charged, move back and forth within an antenna. This
movement of charged particles creates a field that radiates out from the
antenna at the speed of light.
The radio portion of the electromagnetic
spectrum is divided into bands. Some
bands are dedicated to
commercial, government, aviation, and
maritime purposes.
Television stations use radio waves to
broadcast their signals through the air, just
as broadcast radio stations do. In fact, the
TV band for channels 2-6 is next to the FM
radio band

and snow, clouds, and smoke. 1. In the 1960's scientists
discovered cosmic microwave
background radiation.
2. This radiation, which fills the
entire Universe, is believed to
be a clue to its
beginning, something known
as the Big Bang.

Microwave uses include finding planes in the
sky and speeders on the ground
(radar), sending a TV signal from a station to
a broadcasting antenna
(communication), and heating hot dogs
(microwave ovens).

visible and microwave portions
of the spectrum.

B. Infrared radiation is great
for studying cloud
structure.
1. Shows more cloud detail
than standard pictures.
C. Satellites have instruments
that measure and record
infrared radiation.

19.
Infrared radiation is just below the red
end of the visible spectrum. As the
temperature of an object increases, it
emits more IR radiation and of shorter
wavelenghts, At 500ºC most pbjects
start to emit visible red light as well.
Infrared is used in night vision equipment
when there is insufficient visible light to see. It
can be used to remotely determine the
temperature of objects (if the emissivity is
known). This is termed thermography. Infrared
tracking, also known as infrared homing,
refers to a passive missile guidance system
which uses the emission from a target of
electromagnetic radiation in the infrared part
of the spectrum to track it.

Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet. are the colours
of the visible spectrum. We cannot see Infra-red, but we can feel it
warm our skin when we sit in the sun. Infra-red has a longer
wavelength (less energy) than Red light. We cannot see Ultra-violet
light, but we feel our skin has been burnt by the sun if we were in the
sun too long yesterday. It is the Ultra-violet which is thought to cause
skin cancer. UV light has a shorter wavelength (more energy) than
visible light.

A. UV waves are shorter than visible light; therefore, have a higher

• Extends from end of the
visible light range to the

• Has a low power of

• These are the most energetic
wavelengths of light, and they have
the shortest wavelengths. Scientists
know very little about what
produces these wavelengths in
outer space.
• They can pass through many kinds
of materials, including human
tissue. Very dense materials, such
as lead, are commonly used as
shielding to slow or stop gamma
photons.
• They are used for:
• cancer treatment
• measure and control the flow of
liquids in numerous industrial
processes
• sterilize medical equipment in
hospitals
• pasteurize certain foods and
