Radio waves have the longest wavelengths.


What does Low energy waves have?

long wavelengths and low frequency...? Not sure what kind of answer you're looking for here.


What kind of wave carries radio television and telephone waves?

The ones we call "radio waves". That's the electromagnetic spectrum between maybe roughly speaking 10 KHz to 300 GHz., or wavelengths between 1 mm to 30 km.


Wavelength symbol and unit of measurement?

The symbol for wavelength is the lower case Greek letter lambda - which looks like an upside-down y. The unit of measurement depends on the kind of wave: electromagnetic waves, for example, have wavelengths ranging from 10^-11 metres (10 picometres) to 1 kilometre. Other waves can have even longer wavelengths.


Does a smaller wavelngth make a wave have more energy?

That depends on what kind of wave you are talking about. In the case of electromagnetic waves, the smaller wavelengths indeed represent more energetic radiation.

What are the units that are used to measure wavelengths of light?

Hertz is a measurement of wavelength. It is the number of cycles in a second. You can also measure wavelength by the length of the wave moving at the speed of light. 3.5 MHZ (Mega Hertz) is about 80 meters long.

They are transverse waves.

What equiptment measures wavelenghts?

The equipment will depend on the kind of waves. Electromagnetic waves, for example, have wavelengths ranging from 10^-11 metres to 10^3 metres. Clearly, the equipment to measure something as long as 1 kilometre will be different from that used to measure something shorter than a billionth of a metre.


What kind of waves are electromagnetic waves classified as?

They are tranverse waves.
