    Fundamental frequency of the Schumann resonances: 10 1: 10 hertz 10 Hz: Cyclic rate of a typical automobile engine at idle (equivalent to 600 rpm) 12 Hz: Acoustic – the lowest possible frequency that a human can hear [3] 18 Hz: Average house cat's purr 24 Hz: Common frame rate of movies 27.5 Hz

  4. Extremely high frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extremely_high_frequency

    Extremely high frequency or commonly known as "EHF", is a large broadband that span a radius of about (30 GHz to 300 GHz) for the molecular spectra of radio frequencies. It lies between the super high frequency (3 GHz to 30 GHz) band and the far infrared band (300 GHz to 10 15), for which the lower part is the terahertz band.

    Similarly, young subjects may perceive ultraviolet wavelengths down to about 310–313 nm, [26] [27] [28] but detection of light below 380 nm may be due to fluorescence of the ocular media, rather than direct absorption of UV light by the opsins. As UVA light is absorbed by the ocular media (lens and cornea), it may fluoresce and be released at ...

  6. Light - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light

    Faraday proposed in 1847 that light was a high-frequency electromagnetic vibration, which could propagate even in the absence of a medium such as the ether. [40] Faraday's work inspired James Clerk Maxwell to study electromagnetic radiation and light. Maxwell discovered that self-propagating electromagnetic waves would travel through space at a ...

  7. Terahertz radiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terahertz_radiation

    Terahertz waves lie at the far end of the infrared band, just before the start of the microwave band. Terahertz radiation – also known as submillimeter radiation, terahertz waves, tremendously high frequency [1] (THF), T-rays, T-waves, T-light, T-lux or THz – consists of electromagnetic waves within the International Telecommunication Union-designated band of frequencies from 0.3 to 3 ...

  8. Ultra-high-energy gamma ray - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra-high-energy_gamma_ray

    Ultra-high-energy gamma rays are gamma rays with photon energies higher than 100 TeV (0.1 PeV). They have a frequency higher than 2.42 × 10 28 Hz and a wavelength shorter than 1.24 × 10 −20 m. The existence of these rays was confirmed in 2019. [ 1 ]

  9. Photon energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photon_energy

    The amount of energy is directly proportional to the photon's electromagnetic frequency and thus, equivalently, is inversely proportional to the wavelength. The higher the photon's frequency, the higher its energy. Equivalently, the longer the photon's wavelength, the lower its energy. Photon energy can be expressed using any energy unit.
