Q 12-08-053JEE MainJEE Main 2024 (4 Apr, Shift 2)Easy
Arrange the following in ascending order of wavelength: A. Gamma rays $(\lambda_1)$ B. X-rays $(\lambda_2)$ C. Infrared waves $(\lambda_3)$ D. Microwaves $(\lambda_4)$. Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
Answer: (C) $\lambda_1 < \lambda_2 < \lambda_3 < \lambda_4$
In the electromagnetic spectrum the wavelength increases in the order gamma rays < X-rays < infrared < microwaves. So $\lambda_1 < \lambda_2 < \lambda_3 < \lambda_4$.
