The region that lies between IR and UV regions is called:

Correct answer: D. Visible light

  • A. Radio waves
  • B. None of these
  • C. X ray region
  • D. Visible light
  • E. All of these

Explanation

The visible light region falls between the ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) regions on the electromagnetic spectrum. The UV region has a wavelength in the range of 100-400 nm whereas the IR region has a wavelength in the range of 760-1 million nm. The narrow range of 400-700 nm represents rays in the visible light range; rays of wavelengths visible to the human eye.

About Alternating Current

Alternating current varies periodically, so phase relationships become essential when current passes through a resistor, capacitor or inductor. The chapter distinguishes resistance from capacitive and inductive reactance, explains phase lead and lag, and connects changing electric and magnetic fields with the production and properties of electromagnetic waves.
