There is some confusion here.
Wavelengths are measured in units of length, such as meters, kilometers, nanometers, etc.
Frequency is measured in hertz.

Is an X-ray wave a mechanical wave?
No, an X-ray is not a mechanical wave. An X-ray is an electromagnetic wave. However, in polar molecules, an X-ray can cause the molecule to vibrate rapidly, just like a microwave oven can.
What is the wave length of UV?
The wave of UV is shorter then visible light but longer then x-ray waves. It ranges between 400nm and 10nm.
What has the longest wave length a Gamma wave microwave visible light or x-ray?
From that list, microwaves have the longest wavelength. Those four items would be arranged by wavelength like this: - Gamma ray (shortest) - X-ray - Visible light - Microwave (longest)
What is the wave length of uv waves?
The wave of UV is shorter then visible light but longer then x-ray waves. It ranges between 400nm and 10nm.
Which form of radiation form the sun has the shortest?
The form of radiation from the sun that has the shortest wave length is known as a gamma ray. The next type of ray that is longer than a gamma ray is an x-ray.
What is the wave length os soft x-ray and hard x-rays?
Hard x-rays have wavelengths below 0.2nm-0.1nm .Soft X rays have wavelengths above.
What are the examples of electromagnetic wave that we can find in electromagnetic spectrum?
-- a radio wave -- a heat wave -- a yellow wave -- a blue wave -- an ultraviolet wave -- an X-ray -- a gamma ray
What has higher frequency an X-ray or a tv wave?
An X-ray is a high frequency (high energy) electromagnetic wave. It is much higher in frequency than any broadcast wave. The only electromagnetic radiation with higher frequency (shorter wavelength) than the X-ray is the gamma ray.
What electromagnetic wave has more energy than an x-ray?
A gamma ray has more energy than an X-ray.
Is an x-ray a compressional wave?
No.An x-ray is an electromagnetic wave. The varying electric and magnetic fields of which it is composed are perpendicular to each other and to the direction of propagation.It is a transverse wave, not compressional.
Which has the greatest frequency out of radio wave microwave infrared wave visible light ultraviolet light x-ray gamma ray?
gamma ray
What is the length of an ultraviolet wavelength compared to an x-ray wavelength?
The wavelength of the x-ray is shorter.
