Overview編集

Electromagnetic waves (電磁波, denjiha), are waves of particles called photons.

They are classified according to their wavelength range, and light (visible light) that can be seen by humans is also a part of electromagnetic waves.

The longer the wavelength, the lower the frequency and the lower the energy per photon.

The speed at which electromagnetic waves travel (the speed of light) is about 300,000 km/second in a vacuum, which is very fast. The speed of light slows down in matter, and the degree of this slowness depends on the wavelength.
