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


Which has longer wavelength radio or gamma?

radio waves! radio waves have wavelengths longer than about a millimeter, while visible light has wavelengths around 750 billionths to 400 billionths of a meter.


Do radio waves on the electromagnetic have the shortest wavelengths and the highest energy?

The long waves (which also have low energy) are radio waves. Then microwaves and infrared. Then visible light, red to violet (ROYGBIV). Then ultraviolet, X-Rays, and gamma rays (which have the highest energy. So red has a longer wavelength than blue.


What has the longest wavelength-light waves x-rays or radio waves?

Radio Waves are in the lower end of the electromagnetic spectrum and have wavelengths between several hundred feet (AM Radio) to fractions of an inch (Microwave communications). X-Rays are high energy photons at the upper end of the electromagnetic spectrum, with wavelengths shorter than visible light, measured in nanometers to picometers. Color wise, Red is the longest visible, while Violet is the shortest wavelength of visible light. There are many graphical charts of the electromagnetic spectrum that show where the various waves fit in relation to each other, these can be found on an internet image search.

What wave has highest energy?

Gamma rays have the highest energy among the electromagnetic spectrum. They have the shortest wavelengths and highest frequencies, making them the most energetic form of electromagnetic radiation.


Is it true that waves with the shortest wavelength have the lowest frequencies?

No, this statement is not true. Shorter wavelengths are actually associated with higher frequencies, while longer wavelengths are associated with lower frequencies. Wavelength and frequency are inversely related in a wave, such as in the electromagnetic spectrum where gamma rays have the shortest wavelengths and highest frequencies.

Gamma rays carry the most energy among electromagnetic waves. They have the shortest wavelengths and highest frequencies in the electromagnetic spectrum.


How is the electromagnetic spectrum organized?

The electromagnetic spectrum is organized based on increasing frequencies and decreasing wavelengths. It spans from radio waves with the longest wavelengths and lowest frequencies to gamma rays with the shortest wavelengths and highest frequencies. In between are microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, and X-rays.
