Best Answer

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.

The what Waves in the electromagnetic spectrum are gamma waves?

"Gamma" is the name given to the electromagnetic radiation with the highest frequency (shortest wavelength, highest energy).


Is ultraviolet the shortest wavelength?

No. If the shortest wavelength is on the left end of the spectrum, the shortest wavelength is microwaves. if the shortest wavelength is on the right end of the spectrum, the shortest wavelength is gamma rays. I think it is microwaves because micro means small.


What is the shortest wave of the spectrum?

The electromagnetic waves which have the shortest wavelength (and thus, the highest frequency, and the highest energy per photon) are called gamma rays.


How is the electromagnetic spectrum divided?

The Electromagnetic Spectrum consists of: (From least intense to most)Radio WavesMicrowavesInfraredVisible LightUltraviolet LightX-RaysGamma Rays


Which end of the visible electromagnetic spectrum has longer wavelength Red or Blude?

Deep dark red is the visible light with the longest wavelength. Violet is the visible light with the shortest wavelength.


what kind of wave is a gamma wave?

A gamma ray is an electromagnetic wave. It has the highest frequency (and energy) as well as the shortest wavelength on any wave on the electromagnetic spectrum.


Is the longest wavelength violet?

No. In the visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, the waves at the red end have the longest wavelength (lowest frequency), and those at the violet end have the shortest wavelength (highest frequency).


What does the electromagnetic spectrum have?

Electromagnetic spectrum have different electromagnetic waves classified orderly according to their wavelength or frequency.


How does the color of the light bulbs determine the amount of energy of the electromagnetic waves?

The "color" is really a wavelength. The electromagnetic spectrum determines this, every different wavelength has a corresponding color. Red being the longest, and violet being the shortest. This electromagnetic spectrum also determines whether it is visible, ultraviolet, infrared, and so on.
