About this document
Understanding the Electromagnetic Spectrum by HassanTahir is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The electromagnetic spectrum consists of seven types of waves ranging from radio waves to gamma rays, with shorter wavelengths having higher frequencies. All electromagnetic waves are transverse waves that transfer energy, show wave properties like reflection and refraction, and travel at the speed of light in a vacuum. High energy waves like gamma rays and X-rays can ionize atoms and molecules and damage DNA, potentially causing cancer or mutations, while lower energy waves like visible light, infrared, mi
