I don't think there is a limit, as to how high the frequency can get. The EM waves of the highest energy (and frequency) are called "gamma rays".

Which type of em spectrum has the highest wavelength?

The energy of EM radiation depends on its frequency, and the lowest frequency corresponds to the lowest energy. Radio waves are at the low end of the energy and frequency spectrum.


What part of the em spectrum has the highest frequency?

The highest frequency in the electromagnetic spectrum is found in gamma rays. These rays have the shortest wavelengths and the highest energy levels of all electromagnetic waves.


What is the highest energy on the em spectrum?

Gamma rays have the highest energy on the electromagnetic spectrum. They have the shortest wavelength and highest frequency, carrying the most energy of all electromagnetic waves.


What is the highest frequency part of EM spectrum?

The highest frequency part of the electromagnetic spectrum is gamma rays. Gamma rays have the shortest wavelengths and highest energy of all electromagnetic waves.


What are the highest-frequency and the lowest-frequency parts of the em spectrum?

-- The lowest frequencies that we have a name for are what we call "radio" waves. -- The highest frequencies that we have a name for are what we call "gamma" rays. Although there is not upper or lower limit in the electromagnetic spectrum.


What are the highest- frequency and lowest -frequency parts of the EM spectrum?

The highest frequency is gamma rays And the lowest is radio waves


What has the highest frequency in the electromagnetic spectrum?

There is no such thing as the highest frequency. Since photons or electromagnetic travel at the speed of light its frequency correlates to the energy. The highest energy, and thus the highest frequency, is found in cosmic radiation, where a single photon may carry many millions of kiloelectronvolts.


Name all the categories of the EM spectrum?

The categories of the electromagnetic (EM) spectrum, in the ascending order of their frequencies are:RadioMicrowaveInfraredVisibleUltravioletX-rayGammaHence, Radio waves have the lowest frequency and the longest wavelengths while Gamma rays have the highest frequency and the shortest wavelengths.(check related link for an image)


What to properties of EM waves change from one end of the EM spectrum to the other?

Wavelength and frequency :)


What member of the em spectrum has the highest frequecy?

Gamma rays


Which wave in the EM spectrum has the highest number of waves per second?

That's the category we call 'gamma rays'. That's our label for everything withwavelengths shorter than 0.03 nanometers. We have no way to generate these,and they all come from nuclear decay or from outer space.Their frequency =(speed)/(wavelength) = 300,000 km per sec/0.03 nm = 10,000,000,000 GHz and up


What types of radiation has the highest frequency?

In the electromagnetic spectrum Gamma radiation has the highest frequency.
