Question

Which of the following correctly compares infrared rays and microwaves?

a. Microwaves have a longer wavelength.
b. Infrared waves have a shorter frequency.
c. Microwaves have the same energy as infrared waves.
d. Infrared waves have the same frequency as microwaves.

Answer 1

Do you have any ideas/thoughts on what the answer may be?

Answer 2

d

Answer 3

okay so that would be incorrect because there are no waves have the same frequency. Any other guesses? @mykenzie

Answer 4

sorry I'm doing 2 questions i think it is c

Answer 5

So looking at A- 'Microwaves have a longer wavelength.' we can automatically eliminate that because microwaves have a SHORTER wavelength, so now you are left with B & C, any guesses?

Answer 6

C would be incorrect because microwaves have more energy than infrared rays, so your answer will be B- Infrared waves have a shorter frequency. Good job tho! :)

Answer 7

Wait, what?

Microwaves have a LONGER wavelength. See previous pic.
