Question

Which one of the following correctly represents the change in wave characteristics (all in vacuum) from microwaves to X-rays in electromagnetic spectrum?

विकल्प

• Speed - Remains same, Wavelength - Decreases, Frequency - Remains same

• Speed - Remains same, Wavelength - Decreases, Frequency - Increases

• Speed - Increases, Wavelength - Increases, Frequency - Decreases

• Speed - Remains same, Wavelength - Increases, Frequency - Remains same

Answer 1

Speed - Remains same, Wavelength - Decreases, Frequency - Increases

Explanation:

The speed of waves remains constant. Wavelength is longer in microwaves, and frequency is longer in X-rays. Hence, Speed - Remains the same, Wavelength - Decreases, Frequency - Increases. This is correct.
