    Question

    Arrange the following bands of the electromagnetic spectrum in ascending order of their wavelength:

    A. X-rays
    B. Near Infrared rays
    C. Microwaves
    D. Visible Rays
    E. Radio waves

    Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

    A.

    B, C, A, E, D

    B.

    A, B, C, E, D

    C.

    A, B, D, C, E

    D.

    A, D, B, C, E

    Correct option is D

    The ascending order of wavelength in the electromagnetic spectrum follows the pattern:

    1. X-rays (A) → Shortest wavelength, highest energy
    2. Visible Rays (D) → Shorter than infrared but longer than X-rays
    3. Near Infrared Rays (B) → Longer than visible light
    4. Microwaves (C) → Longer than infrared rays
    5. Radio Waves (E) → Longest wavelength, lowest energy

    Thus, the correct sequence is: A (X-rays) → D (Visible Rays) → B (Near Infrared Rays) → C (Microwaves) → E (Radio Waves)

    • X-rays (A) have wavelengths between 0.01 nm and 10 nm, used in medical imaging and crystallography.
    • Visible Rays (D) range from 400-700 nm, forming the spectrum of colors.
    • Near Infrared Rays (B) range from 700 nm to 1 mm, used in remote sensing and night vision.
    • Microwaves (C) range from 1 mm to 1 m, used in communication and radar systems.
    • Radio Waves (E) have wavelengths above 1 meter, used for radio, TV broadcasting, and astronomy.
