To solve the question, we need to identify the types of electromagnetic waves based on the given wavelength and frequency, and then provide a useful application for each. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the First Wave (Y1)**: - Given: Wavelength of Y1 = 1 cm = 0.01 m. - In the electromagnetic spectrum, a wavelength of 1 cm falls within the microwave region. Microwaves typically have wavelengths ranging from 1 mm to 1 m. - **Conclusion**: Y1 is a **Microwave**. ...
