Dear Student 

Electromagnetic waves are used widely in completing the human needs 

(i) The wave used in the satellite communication are microwaves and the radio waves. Microwaves of the shorter wavelength 10 cm to 1 m while radio waves are of wavelength more than 10 m.

(ii) The ultraviolet radiation are used to kill germs in range of 260 - 270 nm

(iii) To check the oil leakage in the oil pipe are X-rays of wavelength range of 0.01 nm to 2 nm

(iv) To improve the night vision the infrared rays is used of the wavelength of 700 nm

a) lamda 1 is Infrared waves
   lamda 2 is Ultraviolent rays
    lamda 3 is Gamma rays
   lamda 4 is X-rays.
  
  b)  Ascending order of all waves:- ​radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays and gamma rays.


c)  uses Infrared: night-vision cameras,
used to study human and animal body heat patterns etc..
     uses Ultraviolent: Burglar Alarm,Checking mineral Sample etc..
     uses Gamma rays: proudce Nuclear reaction,Food industries to kill pathogens etc.. 
     uses X-rays: Scientific research,To detect Fracture,Diseased organs etc..
