    Applications of Visible Light, Ultraviolet, X-rays, and Gamma Rays

    DIRECTIONS: Learn more about visible light, ultraviolet, x-rays, and gamma rays and their
    applications by answering the given activities.

    Q2_W4_Science 10_ Cite examples of practical applications of the different regions of EM


    waves, such as the use of radio waves in telecommunications (S10FE-IIc-d-48)

    Introduction:

    The visible light is the range of electromagnetic waves that humans can see. Visible
    light comes in all colors of the rainbow. Each color has its own special frequency and
    wavelength. Visible light is used in vision, photography and illumination, optical fiber, and
    lasers.

    Ultraviolet (UV) light has shorter wavelengths than visible light but of higher
    frequencies and carry higher energy. These waves are used in security marking, fluorescent
    lamps, disinfecting water, and in detecting forged bank notes.

    X-rays are of shorter wavelengths but carries higher energy than UV rays. These
    waves are used in observing internal structure of objects, airport security scanners, medical
    x-rays, and engineering applications

    Gamma rays are shortest in wavelength, highest in frequency and carry the highest
    amount of energy. Thus, they are more dangerous. They can only be blocked with lead and
    concrete. These waves are used in sterilizing medical equipment, detection of cancer and its
    treatment

    Activity 1. Perfect Match


    Direction: Match the type of electromagnetic wave to the picture of its application. Choose
    from the given types of wave. Write your answers in a separate sheet of paper.

    Visible light Ultra violet X-rays Gamma rays
