6a. A special lamp can produce UV radiation. Which two statements describe the electromagnetic waves emitted by a UV lamp? *
They have a higher frequency than X-rays.
They have the same wave speed as visible light
They have a longer wavelength than microwaves.
They have a lower frequency than gamma rays.
They have a greater wave speed than radio waves.

The correct options are:

B) They have the same wave speed as visible light

D) They have a lower frequency than gamma rays.

Explanation:

B) Ultraviolet rays, commonly known as UV rays, are a type of electromagnetic ways. As electromagnetic waves, in the layman's term, are all kinds of life that can be identified, all electromagnetic waves (UV rays, visible light, infrared, radio etc) all travel with the same velocity, that is the speed of light, given as v = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

D) The frequency of all electromagnetic rays can be found by electromagnetic spectrum (picture attached below).

We can clearly see in the picture that the frequencies of UV rays lie at about 10¹⁵ - 10¹⁶ Hz which is lower than the frequency of Gamma ray, which lie at about 10²⁰ Hz.
