Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The similarity and difference between ultraviolet and microwave radiations are to be determined.
Concept introduction:
1) Electromagnetic waves travel at the
2) Electromagnetic waves are transverse in nature.
3) Electromagnetic waves may be polarized.
4) Electromagnetic waves are not deflected by an electric or magnetic field.
5) Electromagnetic waves need no medium for propagation.
Answer to Problem 7.1P
The similarity between ultraviolet and microwave radiations lies in the fact that both radiations are electromagnetic in nature.
The difference between the two lies in their wavelength and frequency.
Explanation of Solution
Ultraviolet and microwave radiations are among the seven electromagnetic radiations. Hence they are similar because both are composed of oscillating electric and magnetic fields that are perpendicular to each other.
Ultraviolet and microwave radiations differ in their wavelength and frequencies. The wavelength range of microwave radiation is much greater than the wavelength range of ultraviolet radiation, whereas the frequency range of ultraviolet radiation is much greater than that of the microwave.
The similarity between ultraviolet and microwave radiations lies in the fact that both radiations are electromagnetic in nature.
The difference between the two lies in their wavelength and frequency.
