Electromagnetic wave has a shorter wavelength than visible light waves?
Ultraviolet and up have shorter wavelengths.
What type of word describes the electromagnet waves with wavelengths that are shorter than visible light?
Shorter wavelengths means higher frequency, and electromagnetic waves with higher energy. Beyond the blue end of the visible light you have ultraviolet rays; X-rays; and gamma-rays, in that order.
What wavelengths are longer than light but shorter than radio waves?
Infrared light, microwaves and radio waves have wavelengths longer than visible light. Radio waves have the longest wavelength.
Radio waves microwaves and ultraviolet rays have longer wavelenghts then visible light?
Gamma rays and radio waves are both electromagnetic waves. Radio frequency waves are a lower frequency, so they have a longer wave length.
Which waves can be separated into different wavelengths of colored light?
visible light waves
Which waves have shorter wavelengths radio waves or xrays?
X-rays have shorter wavelengths than radio, heat, infra-red, visible light, and ultra-violet.
What has shorter wavelengths than infrared rays?
Infrared rays have a shorter wavelength than microwaves and radio waves. All are examples of electromagnetic radiation.
Electromagnetic wave has a shorter wavelength than visible light waves?
Ultraviolet and up have shorter wavelengths.
What are electromagnetic waves with wavelengths that are shorter than visible light?
ultravioletx-raysgamma rays
What waves the shortest wavelength and the highest frequency?
I'll answer your question for a variety of waves. For sound waves, higher pitch sounds have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths. For water waves, the slowest moving waves have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths. For seismic waves, S waves have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths than P waves. For electromagnetic waves, X-rays and gamma rays have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths than, say, visible light. For quantum mechanical, de Broglie waves, particles with classical analogues of momentum have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths than individual particles.

What wavelengths are longer than light but shorter than radio waves?
Infrared light, microwaves and radio waves have wavelengths longer than visible light. Radio waves have the longest wavelength.
Is Radio waves are shorter than waves of visible light?
Yes, radio waves have a longer wavelength than visible light. They are part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
Do radio waves microwaves and waves all have longer wavelengths than visible light?
Radio and microwaves are longer than visible light. So are heat (infrared) waves. Ultraviolet waves are shorter than visible light. So are X-rays and gamma rays.
Do radio waves microwaves and ultraviolet waves all have longer wavelengths than visible lights?
Radio and microwaves are longer than visible light. So are heat (infrared) waves. Ultraviolet waves are shorter than visible light. So are X-rays and gamma rays.
What 3 waves are larger then visible light?
Electromagnetic waves comprise a complete spectrum of wavelengths, it makes no sense to talk about "individual" waves as is asked in the question.It is also incorrect to talk about the "largeness" of a wave, what is important is the wavelength not the amplitude.The spectrum is divided into portions and names given to the wavelengths within a given portion.Thus portions of the spectrum with wavelengths longerthan that portion of the spectrum called "visible light" are:Infra red light (also called heat)MicrowavesRadio wavesIf we go the other way and look at the portion of the spectrum with wavelengths shorter than visible light, we get:UltravioletX-rayGamma ray
Radio waves microwaves and ultraviolet rays have longer wavelenghts then visible light?
Gamma rays and radio waves are both electromagnetic waves. Radio frequency waves are a lower frequency, so they have a longer wave length.
