Noah Lam · Answer 1

This is the order of the spectrum from highest frequency to lowest frequency:

Gamma Ray (Highest energy em wave)

X Ray (Used in medical imaging)

Ultra violet (dangerous to human skin)

visible light (human eye can see)

Infrared (medium frequency)

Microwave (used to heat food)

Radio (longest wavelength)
