Solution
The correct option is
A
same velocity but different wavelength
A
n
s
w
e
r
:
−
A
speed of electromagnetic wave in vacuum is given by:-
c(speed of light)=frequency
×
wavelength =
1
μ
0
ϵ
0
=constant
as we go from gamma rays to radio waves frequency decreases and wavelength increases thereby maintaining the product constant.
so velocity is same but wavelength is different.
