Violet light has the shortest wave length?

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.

For the same speed of a wave (I suppose you are referring to electromagnetic waves), the highest frequency corresponds to the shortest wavelength.For the same speed of a wave (I suppose you are referring to electromagnetic waves), the highest frequency corresponds to the shortest wavelength.For the same speed of a wave (I suppose you are referring to electromagnetic waves), the highest frequency corresponds to the shortest wavelength.For the same speed of a wave (I suppose you are referring to electromagnetic waves), the highest frequency corresponds to the shortest wavelength.


Which color has the largest wave length?

The color red has the largest wavelength. The color violet, on the other hand, has the shortest wavelength.


3 A wave with which of the following frequencies would have the shortest wavelength?

So far in the electromagnetic spectrum we have gamma radiations having the shortest wavelength. In case of de Broglie's waves the matter waves of massive objects such as an iron ball moving at a faster rate would have the shortest wavelength which could not be measured even. So we declare that only light particles such as electron, proton, neutron or alpha particle, deutron moving at higher speeds would act as a wave with shortest wavelength.
