Matching Waves to Applications

Matching Waves to Applications

Electromagnetic spectrum from radio waves to gamma rays, showing increasing frequency and energy, increasing wavelength in the opposite direction, and a suitable application and property for each band

An application is a practical use of an electromagnetic wave. Each band is chosen because its wavelength, frequency, and interaction with matter suit a particular job.
