Which wave in the EM spectrum has the shortest wavelength?

Gamma rays have the shortest wavelength. Electromagnetic wave is a kind of energy being propagated even through free space (vacuum). It is classified based on the mode of producing it as Radio waves, micro waves, infra red, visible, ultra violet, X-ray and Gamma ray. Out of these seven, radio waves have the lowest frequency and Gamma ray has the highest frequency. As frequency and wavelength are inversely related, radio wave would have the longest wavelength.


What is the Energy that travels across distances in the form of electromagnetic waves?

Energy transfered in the form of electromagnetic waves is classified according to wavelength of the radiation. Radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet light, X-rays and gamma rays are all forms of electromagnetic radiation.


All electromagnetic waves have the same?

In a vacuum, all electromagnetic waves have the same propagation speed of c = 300,000,000 meters per second (the speed of light). All of these waves, however, may have different frequencies and thus wavelengths. The speed of a wave is related to its frequency and wavelength by the relation (speed) = (frequency) X (wavelength) Since the speed of electromagnetic waves in a vacuum is constant, the frequency and wavelength are "inversely proportional" to one another. This means that cutting the frequency of a wave in half makes its wavelength double, and vice versa.


What is the relationship between the energy and wavelength of electromagnetic radiation?

Wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional. The higher the frequency, the shorter (lower) the wavelength. Energy is proportional to frequency, and higher frequency waves will have a higher energy. Mathematically, frequency = 1 divided by wavelength, or f = 1/λ Use the link below for more information, including a diagram or two to make things clearer.


What is the longest wavelength?

There is no longest wavelength. In the electromagnetic spectrum extremely low frequency waves can have wavelengths of less than 100 megametres (100,000 kilometres or 10^8 metres). Gravitational waves are likely to have much longer wavelengths.

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.


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).


What is the measurement between waves?

Distance between two waves is known as wavelength. Out of all electromagnetic spectrum, radio waves have the longest wavelength and gamma rays have the shortest wavelength. Waves that have less wavelength are highly energetic.


What are electromagnetic waves with the longest wave lengths and the electromagnetic waves with the shortest wave lengths?

The longest wavelength corresponds to long wave radio, I think the longest used is about 2000 meters. The shortest are gamma rays, which occur in radioactivity, these are from about 10-11 meters down.


Electromagnetic waves of the longest wavelength carry the greatest energy?

No. The energy of an EM wave is E = h*c / (wavelength), therefore waves with the shortest wavelength (or highest frequency) carry the greatest energy.


What is the ascending order of the eight electromagnetic spectrum waves base from their wavelength?

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.
