What electromagnetic spectrum wave is beneficial?

Light and heat are very helpful to human beings, and radio has become pretty important too.


Two types of solar radiation that are not harmful to human beings?

Visible light and infrared radiation are two types of solar radiation that are not harmful to human beings. They are part of the electromagnetic spectrum and are essential for processes such as photosynthesis and vision.


Does everything, including objects and living beings, have an electromagnetic field?

Yes, everything, including objects and living beings, has an electromagnetic field.


Why do you call the visible light part of the EMS visible light?

Because it's comprised of the band of wavelengths that the human eye can detect, that is, wavelengths that are 'visible' to human beings.


Which object observe light?

Objects with the ability to reflect, refract, or emit light can observe light. Examples include mirrors that reflect light, prisms that refract light, and light detectors that can sense and measure the intensity of light.


Are gamma rays light?

Gamma rays, just like (visible) light rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation. Gamma rays have a much shorter wavelength (and thus more energy) than visible light, which is why they are much more dangerous to human beings (e.g. they may cause cancer).


How do human beings perceive infrared radiation?

Infrared radiation is part of the electromagnetic spectrum, which includes radio waves, microwaves, visible light, ultraviolet, X rays and gamma rays. Infrared radiation has longer wavelengths than the red part of the visible spectrum (hence the name infrared for below red) and is invisible to the human eye. However humans do sense infrared as heat. So when you are warming yourself on a cold day with a roaring fire or hands around a hot drink it is the infrared radiation you are feeling.


What is electromagnet spectrum waves?

Light and heat are very helpful to human beings, and radio has become pretty important too.


What is the type of electromagnetic energy that is absorbed by the ozone layer?

Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is the type of electromagnetic energy that is absorbed by the ozone layer in the Earth's stratosphere. UV radiation is harmful to living organisms and can cause skin cancer and other health issues if it reaches the Earth's surface in large amounts.


Do guitar amplifiers emit electromagnetic radiation?

Yes, guitar amplifiers emit electromagnetic radiation as a byproduct of converting electrical signals into sound waves. This radiation is generally considered low-level and not harmful to human health.


Why don't x-rays reach the surface?

X-rays are a part of the electromagnetic spectrum. It consists of electromagnetic waves that have unique characteristics based on their wavelength or frequency. Human beings can only perceive light that has a wavelength about 10-6 metres. This spectrum consists of all visible lights, from red to violet. X-rays, on the other hand have a wavelength of 10-10 metres, much beyond the range of the electromagnetic spectrum that is visible to the naked eye. It is therefore not possible to see X-rays, although all of the electromagnetic spectrum is fundamentally the same. It is the inherent property of the human eye to be able to see only the frequencies that are present in the visible spectrum


Is it true that humans can see all light waves?

as human eyes are sensitive to only wavelengths ranging from 400 nanometers to 700 nanometers, so human beings can see light between these limits, and the rest of the light passes unseen.
