which part of the electromagnetic spectrum has the largest penetrating power?
433629
a) Part of the electromagnetic spectrum has largest penetrating power is Gamma Rays.
379256
The Electromagnetic spectrum consists of the follwing types of radiation: radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible, ultraviolet, X-rays, gamma-rays. Gamma-rays have the most energy and are the most penetrating, while radio waves have the lowest energy and are the least penetrating.
707988
Gamma rays, a form of nuclear and cosmic EM radiation, can have the highest frequencies and, hence, the highest photon energies in the EM spectrum.
179942
The gamma radiation region have the highest frequency.
1398864
A lot of the electromagnetic radiation is absorbed by the atmosphere, with the exceptions of radio waves, microwaves, and visible light. While infrared and ultraviolet radiation are mostly absorbed by the atmosphere, they are also capable of penetrating the atmosphere at some wavelengths.
27828
Radio waves, on the other hand, have the lowest energies, longest wavelengths, and lowest frequencies of any type of EM radiation. In order from highest to lowest energy, the sections of the EM spectrum are named: gamma rays, X-rays, ultraviolet radiation, visible light, infrared radiation, and radio waves.
187241
The electromagnetic spectrum includes, from longest wavelength to shortest: radio waves, microwaves, infrared, optical, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma-rays.
1238717
Examples of electromagnetic waves include radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, x-rays, and gamma rays. Radio waves have the lowest energy and frequency and the longest wavelength. Gamma rays have the highest energy and frequency and the shortest wavelength.

On the right side of the diagram are X rays and gamma rays. They have the shortest wavelengths and highest frequencies of all electromagnetic waves. They also have the most energy. Between these two extremes are waves that are commonly called light.
12272
Radio waves have photons with low energies, microwave photons have a little more energy than radio waves, infrared photons have still more, then visible, ultraviolet, X-rays, and, the most energetic of all, gamma-rays.
177995
Radio waves have the longest wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum. These waves can be longer than a football field or as short as a football. Radio waves do more than just bring music to your radio. They also carry signals for your television and cellular phones.
1265404
Gamma Rays-have the smallest wavelengths and the most energy of any other wave in the electromagnetic spectrum.
338803
Gamma rays have the shortest wavelengths of the electromagnetic spectrum, and the highest energies.
794143
Gamma rays are the highest energy, highest frequency, and shortest wavelength waves in the electromagnetic spectrum. Gamma rays can be used to kill living organisms, sterilize medical equipment, and treat cancer.

Answer Expert Verified The part of the electromagnetic spectrum closest to radio waves is microwaves. The wavelength of radio waves ranges from 10 cm to more than 1 km.
46008
The most dangerous frequencies of electromagnetic energy are X-rays, gamma rays, ultraviolet light and microwaves. X-rays, gamma rays and UV light can damage living tissues, and microwaves can cook them.
