Electromagnetic Spectrum

The spectrum has a very wide array of usage in our day to day life. Some of them are listed below for us to appreciate their importance more.

• • Gamma rays are used for killing the bacteria in marshmallows &to sanitize medical equipment
  • X-rays are used for scanning the structures of image bone
  • Ultraviolet light can observe bees because flowers can stand-out visibly at this frequency
  • Visible light is used to view the world by humans
  • Infrared is used in laser metal cutting, night vision, and heat sensors,
  • Microwave is used in radar, and microwave ovens
  • Radio waves are used in radio, TV broadcasts

Thus, this is all about the electromagnetic spectrum and it includes a set of electromagnetic waves in different frequencies. But these are invisible to human eyes. Daily, we are enclosed by these types of waves because everybody is exposed to magnetic as well as electric fields at the workplace or home from the electricity transmission and generation of domestic machines, industrial tools to telecommunications & broadcasting. Here is a question for you, what is the electromagnetic spectrum range?
