Physics Question on Electromagnetic waves

Which of the following is the infrared wavelength?

A

104cm10^{-4} cm

B

105cm10^{-5} cm

C

106cm10^{-6} cm

D

107cm10^{-7} cm

Answer

104cm10^{-4} cm

Explanation

Solution

The wavelength of infrared region is 8×105cm8 \times 10^{-5} cm to 3×103cm3 \times 10^{-3} cm. So maximum wavelength of infrared region =8×105cm104cm=8 \times 10^{-5} cm \approx 10^{-4} cm.
