Which electromagnetic waves have the shortest wavelengths and highest frequencies?
Those are called gamma rays, or gamma radiation.
Radio waves with wavelengths between 10cm and 1mm are called what?
No. Your cellphone, many TV stations, and the GPS satellites transmit wavelengths shorter than 1 meter. X-rays have wavelengths between 0.00000000001 and 0.00000001 meter. (1/100th of a nanometer to 10 nanometers)
How are beats produced?
When two or more sound waves are traveling at different frequencies and amplitude, there will be a time when these waves overlaps (superimpose) or cancel out each other. This will form a highest amplitude point and also a point where there is no displacement. This is called a beat.
What is the highest womens voice called?
The highest woman's voice is called soprano.
The full range of frequencies of electromagnetic radiation is called?
That would be a spectrum or band.

What electromagnetic waves with the shortest wavelengths and the highest frequencies called?
Gamma rays
What are the electromagnetic waves with the shortest wavelengths and the highest frequency called?
Gamma Rays
What is The electromagnetic waves with the shortest wavelengths and the highest frequencies are called?
Gamma rays. In order of decreasing wavelength and increasing frequency: Radio waves, micro waves, infra-red waves, visible light, ultra-violet, x-rays and gamma rays.
What are all the frequencies or wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation called?
the electromagnetic spectrum. ============================
What are elecromagnetic waves with the highest frequencies called?
gamma rays. they have the shortesst wawvelengths and the highest frequencies.
When talking about wavelengths what is the highest point of a wave called?
It is called the peak.
What is the full range of the wavelengths of EM waves?
The full range is called the "electromagnetic spectrum".No number can be given, because there's no such thing as the longestor shortest wavelength (lowest or highest frequency). The electromagneticspectrum has no ends.
What is the arrangement of electromagnetic waves according to their wavelengths and frequencies called?
That's called the electromagnetic spectrum.
What causes colour?
Light is made up of radiation of different wavelengths/frequencies; our eyes can perceive some of these differences in wavelengths/frequencies.Light is made up of radiation of different wavelengths/frequencies; our eyes can perceive some of these differences in wavelengths/frequencies.Light is made up of radiation of different wavelengths/frequencies; our eyes can perceive some of these differences in wavelengths/frequencies.Light is made up of radiation of different wavelengths/frequencies; our eyes can perceive some of these differences in wavelengths/frequencies.
What is the shortest wave of the spectrum?
The electromagnetic waves which have the shortest wavelength (and thus, the highest frequency, and the highest energy per photon) are called gamma rays.
What type of radiation has the shortest wave length?
If this question if referring to electromagnetic radiation (light) then the sun probably emits very small amounts of gamma rays, which have the shortest wavelengths of all electromagnetic radiation as well as larger amounts of x-Rays (the next wavelength larger). However, there are a variety of particles with larger masses and higher energies than that of photons. These particles are known as cosmic rays, which include electrons, muons, protons, neutrons, and even whole helium nuclei (called alpha particles). These higher mass particles can travel at near-light-speed velocities and as a result have very short wavelengths.
