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.
In the electromagnetic spectrum which has the shortest wavelength?
Shortest wavelength corresponds to highest energy, and this region of the EM spectrum contains high energy radiation such as X-rays and gamma rays.The part with the highest frequencies ... the end where the gamma rays are.
What is the highest frequency part of EM spectrum?
That's the gamma radiation.
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.
What 2 properties of EM waves change from one end of the EM spectrum to the other?
Frequency; wavelength; energy per photon.
What is the highest frequency on the em spectrum?

What member of the em spectrum has the highest frequecy?
Gamma rays

What color of the visible light spectrum has the highest energy?
Violet light has the highest energy.
Which element on the periodic table is used to kill cancer cells?
In terms of the Electromagnetic spectrum, Gamma radiation and X-rays are usually used to treat cancer patients in a process called Radiotherapy, as these are the highest energy forms of the EM spectrum. However, other forms of radiation such as high-energy neutrons are being used, which do not belong to the EM spectrum.
Which of these statements about the EM spectrum is false?
Most of the EM spectrum is visible light.
What gamma waves have?
Gamma waves have the shortest wavelength of any electromagnetic wave in the EM spectrum, the shortest wavelength means highest cyclic frequency, and highest intensity of any EM wave. (energy transferance by gamma waves is the strongest) *intensity is a measure of the height of the sine wave as opposed to to length, essentially more energy in a smaller crossectional area.
What 2 properties of EM waves change from one end of the EM spectrum to the other?
Frequency; wavelength; energy per photon.
Where is wave located on the em spectrum?
all of the em spectrum is measured i waves
