The wavelengths of visible light are between 3.8x10^-7 and 7.6x10^-7. Are these wavelengths longer or shorter than those ultraviolet rays?
(ultraviolet rays: 10^-10 x 1000)

Respuesta :

Answer:

The wavelengths of ultraviolet rays is shorter than the wavelengths of visible light

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

the wavelengths of ultraviolet rays is [tex]1000*10^{-10}[/tex]

Remember that

[tex]1000*10^{-10}=1*10^{3}*10^{-10}=1*10^{-7}[/tex]

Compare with the minimum value of the wavelengths of visible light

[tex]1*10^{-7}< 3.8*10^{-7}[/tex]

therefore

The wavelengths of ultraviolet rays is shorter than the wavelengths of visible light
