Electromagnetic Spectrum & Atmosphere question from JEE Main 2014 (19 Apr, Shift 1)

Q26JEE Main 2014 · 19 APR · SHIFT 1Easy

Electromagnetic Spectrum & Atmosphere

If microwaves, X rays, infrared, gamma rays, ultra-violet, radio waves and visible parts of the electromagnetic spectrum are represented by M, X, I, G, U, R and V, the following is the arrangement in ascending order of wavelength:

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

Ascending wavelength means from the high-frequency end of the spectrum.
$\gamma$ -rays < X-rays < UV < visible < infrared < microwaves < radio waves.
So the order is G, X, U, V, I, M, R.
So the answer is (c).
