Introduction
The electromagnetic spectrum is the range of frequencies (the spectrum) of
electromagnetic radiation and their respective wavelengths and photon
energies. Electromagnetic spectrum coves electromagnetic waves with
frequencies ranging from below one hertz to above 10 25 hertz, corresponding
to wavelengths from thousands of kilometers down to a fraction of the size of
an atomic nucleus. It describes all the kinds of light, including those the
human eye cannot see. Most of the light in the universe is invisible to our
eyes. The light we can see, made up of the individual colors of the rainbow,
represents only a very small portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Application of EM Waves
Introduction
In this research, we shall learn about the application of em waves and their
uses. In modern times, electromagnetic (EM) wave absorption applications
in both commercial and military fields have risen as technology, research,
and the economy have advanced. Meanwhile, the issues caused by EM wave
absorption, such as signal interference and back-radiation of microstrip
radiators, have increasingly become apparent. Furthermore, the impact of
EM wave radiation on human health has also attracted much public
attention.
Body
Every part of the electromagnetic spectrum has multiple applications in our
everyday lives, And many of that applications involve the uses of technology.
Radio waves were used for communications and also they're used to
broadcast television signals, and they're how mobile phones work your voice
is sent through radio signals. Radio waves also use for radar, which is why
both words start with the same three letters. Microwaves Have probably the
most obvious application: in a microwave. Microwaves can be used to heat
and cook our meals every day. Since microwaves aren't that different from
radio waves. Infrared waves, or infrared light, are also part of the
electromagnetic spectrum people encounter infrared waves every day but the
human eye cannot see them, they only are seen using an infrared detector
or bolometer, and thermal detector But a human can only detect it as heat.
Uv radiation or Ultraviolet Waves Have their uses too, but they're also a bit
of a pain. That's because the sun produces a lot of ultraviolet and is a
common cause of skin cancer. The two types of skin cancer are basal cell
cancer and squamous cell cancer. typically they form on the head, face,
neck, hands, and arms because the body parts are the most exposed to UV
radiation. Most cases of melanoma, the deadliest kind of skin cancer, are
caused by exposure to UV radiation. Anyone can have harmful health effects
from UV radiation including myself. Getting a sun tan might be fun, but
because of the risk, it's a bad idea. The positive uses of UV radiation are the
fact that UV can sterilize and disinfect medical instruments (or anything
else, for that matter), Killing bacteria and viruses. X-rays are a form of
electromagnetic radiation, similar to visible light. unlike light, however, x-
rays have higher energy and can pass through most objects, including the
parts of our body. X-rays are used to generate images of tissues and
structures inside the body. An image will be formed that represents the
"shadows" formed by the object inside of the human body. Gamma rays are
high-frequency electromagnetic radiation and therefore carry a lot of energy.
They pass through most types of materials. Only an absorber such as a lead
block or a thick concrete block can stop their transmission. in may alpha
and beta transition, the residual nucleus is formed in an excited state.
Conclusion
And now we know that electromagnetic waves have a vast range of practical
everyday applications that include such diverse uses as communication by
cell phone and radio broadcasting, WIFI, cooking, vision, medical imaging,
and treating cancer. Since each part of the EM spectrum has different
wavelengths, frequencies, and energies it allows them to have different uses
or functions. All of the uses or functions depend on how well the receiving
end can absorb, reflect, transmit or refract the wave, cooking food is to do
with absorption whereas fiber optic communications are a reflection.
Electromagnetic waves differ in their wavelength range, or equivalently, in
their corresponding ranges.

For this research let's talk about Optical lenses and Convex/Concave Mirror
theory. Optical lenses are polished glass or plastic substrates that are
shaped with one or more curved surfaces that transmit light. Optical lenses
may be used either uncoated or with an antireflective coating depending on
their intended application. All optical lenses have a focal length , the
distance from the lens to the focal point along the lens's optical axis. Three
factors determine the focal length of a lens; the radius of curvature of the
lens, the refractive index of the substrate from which the lens is made, and
the medium in which the lens resides. The focal length of a lens can be
calculated using the lens maker’s formula.
Body
The core differences between the mirror and lens would be due to their
construction and working, the mirror is the apparatus that reflects the light
falling on them. whereas lenses are the ones that manipulate light, the
mirror is having one side of a reflective coating. lenses are classified into
various types: simple lenses and compound lenses, and depending on the
type of refraction image formed by lenses: concave and convex lenses. A
convex lens is also known as a converging lens. A converging lens is a lens
that converges rays of light that are traveling parallel to its principal axis.
They can be identified by their shape which is relatively thick across the
middle and thin at the upper and lower edges. The edges are curved
outward rather than inward. As the light approaches the lens, the rays are
parallel. Concave mirrors have a curved surface with a center of curvature
equidistant from every point on the mirror's surface. An object beyond the
center of curvature forms a real and inverted image between the focal point
and the center of curvature.
Conclusion
Even though both these devices are used in optics, there is a difference
between mirror and lens. The mirror is a device based on the principle of
reflection whereas the lens is based on the principle of refraction. Both these
devices are used in various industries such as photography or astronomy
etc.

Introduction
Now let's talk about what I have learned in my research about the
application of Em waves. Some of us may question what are the uses of the
Em waves. or how to apply Em waves in our daily life? or what is the
purpose of it? and now let me explain the uses and application of em waves,
Em waves play a massive role in our lives. we can enjoy mobile phones
through texting or playing video games, radio, Tv, and more by controlling
and manipulating these Em waves. Light testing equipment also checks for
the presence of Em waves. So, Em waves are much more relevant and useful
than we might think.
Body
Delve into some of the technological applications of electromagnetic waves
and discover how they've been making our lives easier for decades through
these waves. And also how electromagnetic waves are classified such as
radio, infrared, ultraviolet, and so on. we also summarize some of the main
applications for each range.
Conclusion
As you can see, there are numerous technological applications of
electromagnetic waves. In addition, many of them are more prevalent in our
lives than we realize. EM waves are around us every day, from listening to
the radio on the way to work to reheating lunch in the microwave. They help
us communicate unto everyone, use this as a medical photograph of our
organs, and talk on the phone.

Introduction
Let's talk about what I have learned in my research journal about optics
mirrors and lenses. The difference between a mirror and a lens lies in how
light reflects when falls over its surface. When Light interacts with any
surface, mainly two things happen; Reflection and Refraction. The main
difference between a mirror and a lens is that the image forms by reflection,
as the light falls on a mirror. In the lens, the image is formed by refraction.
Let us now understand more about the difference between a mirror and a
lens by studying it in detail.
Body
A convex mirror is a diverging mirror in which the reflective surface bulges
toward the light source. They are not used to focus light as they reflect light
outwards. The image formed by convex mirrors is smaller than the object
but gets larger as they approach the mirror. A concave mirror has a
reflective surface that is curved inward and away from the light source.
Concave mirrors reflect light inward to one focal point.
Conclusion
Unlike convex mirrors, the image formed by a concave mirror shows
different image types depending on the distance between the object and the
mirror. Can you distinguish between concave and convex mirrors without
touching them? When you keep an object in front of a concave mirror, an
enlarged image of the object is formed when it is kept close to the mirror and
an inverted image of the object is formed when it is kept at a distance. A
convex mirror always forms a small and erected image of the object.
