Infrared waves are ineffective for treating cancer because they do not transfer enough energy to destroy cancer cells.

Importance of high frequency waves

One of the uses of a high frequency wave is in the treatment of cancer. These high frequency waves transfer enough energy to destroy the cancer cells.

E = hf

where;

  • f is frequency of the wave

Infrareds have low frequency, and hence low energy.

Thus, infrared waves are ineffective for treating cancer because they do not transfer enough energy to destroy cancer cells.
