What is the wavelength of visible region in the electromagnetic spectrum ?

  • A.0.4 - 0.7 μm
  • B.0.7 - 1.0 μm
  • C.3.0 - 3.5 μm
  • D.1.0 - 3.0 μm

Answer: A

The visible region spans about 0.4 - 0.7 μm.

Human eyes respond to wavelengths from about 0.4 μm (violet) to 0.7 μm (red), that is 400-700 nm. In remote sensing, the blue, green and red bands of sensors all lie in this range.

0.7-1.0 μm is the near infrared, important for vegetation studies. 1.0-3.0 μm is the shortwave infrared, and 3.0-3.5 μm lies in the mid infrared. None of these is visible light.
