Shortest wavelength corresponds to highest frequency.
Within the AM broadcast band, that's 1700 KHz.
Wavelength = speed/frequency = 176.35 meters(rounded)
Frequency = speed/wavelength = 300,000,000/2 = 150,000,000 = 150 MHz. (The ham-radio band from 144 to 148 MHz is usually called the "two-meter band".)
Extra-low frequency radio waves can have wavelengths as long as 3.5 miles or more. The shortest wavelength is around 1 mm.
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
"Longer wavelength" always means lower frequency.
Wavelength = speed/frequency = 3 x 108/100 x 106 = 3 meters (in vacuum)
Every radio wave has a different length. It depends on the frequency and is inversely proportional to the speed of light. K1ATV, Mesa AZ

X rays dont go as far as radio waves
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.
"Longer wavelength" always means lower frequency.
