Answer 5.6
Shorter wavelength = TV Channel 2 waves
Lower energy = AM radio waves

Answer 5.8
850 nm is equal to 850 × 10⁻⁹ m, since 1 nm = 10⁻⁹ m.

To compute this: 850 × 10⁻⁹ = (8.5 × 10²) × 10⁻⁹ = 8.5 × 10(2-9) = 8.5 × 10⁻⁷ m.
Answer= the wavelength is 8.5 × 10⁻⁷ meters.
Answer 5.10
Radio waves: meters to kilometers in wavelength
Infrared: 10−310^{-3}10−3 m to 10−610^{-6}10−6 m
UV light: about 10−810^{-8}10−8

answer Ultraviolet (UV) light has the shortest wavelength.

Answer 5.12
1. FM radio 3 m
2. Cell phone 0.3 m
3. Red neon light 6.5*10-7

answer FM radio station > Cell phone > Red color in neon lights

Answer 5.14
UV radiation > Infrared radiation > AM radio station
Answer 5.20
a. Orange light vs. Violet light
Orange light: λ = 620 nm
