Question : ______ are also known as heat waves.
Option 1: Infrared waves
Option 2: Gamma rays
Option 3: Light waves
Option 4: X-rays
Correct Answer: Infrared waves
Solution : The correct answer is Infrared waves.
Wavelengths longer than visible light waves are known as infrared waves. Infrared waves have a wavelength greater than 700 nm. At wavelengths that cause atoms and molecules to vibrate, infrared waves are produced. Particles vibrate in response to infrared radiation, releasing thermal energy.
