(ii) detection of fracture in bones
(iii) treatment of muscular strain

Ans.

Here are the electromagnetic waves and their corresponding applications:

(i) FM radio broadcast:

  • Electromagnetic waves: Radio waves

  • Wavelength range: Approximately 1 meter to 100 kilometers

(ii) Detection of fractures in bones:

  • Electromagnetic waves: X-rays

  • Wavelength range: Approximately 0.01 to 10 nanometers

(iii) Treatment of muscular strain:

  • Electromagnetic waves: Infrared radiation (IR)

  • Wavelength range: Approximately 700 nanometers to 1 millimeter
