these are the entire electromagnetic spectrum: (getting bigger in size)
gamma rays = smallest
x-rays = 2nd smallest
ultra violet
visible light ( ie the rainbow)
infra red
microwaves
radio waves
aswell as this, there are other tpes of wave like sound wave, water wave, heat wave, but theere is some debate about whether light is a wave or a particle, ie the photon, cos iut acts like both
The form that we call "gamma rays".
When it comes to radiation from the sun, the type that has the shortest wave length is known gamma rays. A type of wave that is longer than gamma rays is radio rays, which go for a considerable distance.
The longest wavelength is radio waves, followed by microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays, which have the shortest wavelength.
No violet light does not have the shortest wavelength. Cosmic rays have the shortest wavelenght which is 10-18 m. Due to its shortest wavelength it has the highest frequency and thus it travels the largest distance.
Gamma rays have the shortest wavelength and the highest energy of all types of electromagnetic radiation. They are produced by radioactive decay and nuclear explosions.
Yes.
The shortest wave is a Gamma wave
From longest wave length to shortest (least energy to most, lowest frequency to highest) the spectrum is: Radio & TV - Microwaves - Infrared - Visible Light - Ultraviolet - X-Rays - Gamma Rays
Gamma rays would have the shortest wavelength among electromagnetic waves.
Gamma rays have the shortest wavelengths among all waves in the electromagnetic spectrum.
Gamma rays have wavelengths shorter than 10 picometres (10^-11 metres), corresponding to frequencies exceeding 10 exahertz (10^19 Hz).It is theorised that the Planck length may be the smallest meaningful unit of distance. A wave with that wavelength would have a frequency of approx 6.2*10^34Hz.
Violet light has the shortest wavelength in the visible spectrum.
