The radio waves with the shortest wavelengths and highest frequencies are called what?
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
Radio waves with wavelengths between 10cm and 1mm are called what?
No. Your cellphone, many TV stations, and the GPS satellites transmit wavelengths shorter than 1 meter. X-rays have wavelengths between 0.00000000001 and 0.00000001 meter. (1/100th of a nanometer to 10 nanometers)
What type of energy is radio waves?
A radio wave is an electromagnetic wave. It's a form of electromagnetic radiation.The term "radio" is the name given to a part of the spectrum of electromagnetic waves that is used for radio and television broadcasting, mobile phones, terrestrial and satellite wireless communications networks, etc.The whole wide spectrum of electromagnetic waves has frequencies (and wavelengths) ranging from "audio" to "radio" to "infrared" to "visual light" to "X-Rays", and beyond to "gamma rays" at the very top end of the spectrum.
Which waves have shorter wavelengths radio waves or xrays?
X-rays have shorter wavelengths than radio, heat, infra-red, visible light, and ultra-violet.
Which waves have shorter wavelengths radio waves or x rays?
X-rays have by far the shorter wavelength. Radio waves can go from several meters in length to miles in length. X-rays, on the other hand, have a wavelength of 0.01 to 10 nanometers. (Nanometers are one-billionth of a meter thick. For a better picture, think of a millimeter - and divide it into one million.)

Which are the longest and shortest wavelengths?
radio waves and gamma rays, respectively
Which will have the longest wavelengths light waves X-rays or radio waves?
Of the items on that list, radio has the longest wavelength and x-rays have the shortest.

What is the frequence of a radio wave?
Radio waves have frequencies (and wavelengths) ranging from above "audio" to below "infrared light".The term "radio" is the name given to a part of the spectrum of electromagnetic waves that is used for radio and television broadcasting, mobile phones, terrestrial and satellite wireless communications networks, etc.Further informationA radio wave is an electromagnetic wave, which is another name for electromagnetic radiation.The whole wide spectrum of electromagnetic waves has frequencies (and wavelengths) ranging from "audio" to "radio" to "infrared" to "visual light" to "X-Rays", and beyond to "gamma rays" at the very top end of the spectrum.

How can you see through the interstellar medium?
by observing in high-energy wavelengths such as X rays and long wavelengths of light such as radio waves
What has wavelengths longer than visble light?
Ultra-violet, short-wave radio waves, x-rays, gamma rays, cosmic rays
Gamma rays faster than radio waves?
No. Gamma rays and radio waves are both electromagnetic waves and travel at the same speed. They just have different wavelengths/frequencies.
