Infrared.
Gamma Waves. being 10^-12 metres or 0.00000000001 metres or 1 picometer
There are radio waves with a wavelength of 1000 m, microwaves with a wavelength of 0.01 m, then comes infrared light of 10-5 m, visible light of 5*10-6 m, ultraviolet light of 10-8 m, x-rays of 10-10 m and finally gamma rays of 10-12 m in wavelength.
The frequency at which a microwave oven operates, about 2,450 MHz, has a wavelength of about 12 cm.
We know the formula of speed of a wave is given by V = FW... where V is the speed , F is the frequency and W is the wavelength so very clearly the speed of this wave is 4*3 =12 m/s.

15 m. Always multiply the wave length and the amplitude. ~ From a 12 yr. old GIRL! :)

The velocity of a wave is wavelength x frequency. velocity = 3m x 12/s = 36m/s
The speed of the wave is 4x3= 12 meters/second.
We know the formula of speed of a wave is given by V = FW... where V is the speed , F is the frequency and W is the wavelength so very clearly the speed of this wave is 4*3 =12 m/s.
Speed = (frequency) x (wavelength) = (12 per sec) x (2 meters) = 24 m/sec
Arbitrarily small is an answer - some gamma rays will have a wavelength smaller than the size of an atom. Less then 10picometre = 10**(-12)m. [Where ** means 'to the power of].
Motion sensing lights use a passive system that detects infrared energy. These sensors are known as PIR (passive infrared) detectors or pyroelectric sensors. Human skin averages to be 93 degrees F, which radiates infrared energy in a wavelength that is between 9 and 10 micrometers. The sensors dectect quick movement of objects that radiate between 8 to 12 micrometers of infrared energy.
