Which have the highest frequency in the electromagnetic spectrum?

Gamma rays have the highest frequency in the electromagnetic spectrum, followed by X-rays, ultraviolet light, visible light, infrared radiation, microwaves, and radio waves in decreasing order of frequency.


Are microwaves longer than gamma rays?

No, gamma rays have shorter wavelengths than microwaves. Gamma rays have the shortest wavelength and highest frequency in the electromagnetic spectrum, while microwaves have longer wavelengths and lower frequencies.


Which has higher frequencies microwaves or visible lights?

Visible light has shorter wavelengths than microwaves. Microwaves, which might be considered the highest energy radio waves, have a longer wavelength (and a lower frequency) than visible light.


Order the types of waves from lowest frequency and wavelength to the highest?

There are many types of waves, but the main ones are: radio waves, microwaves, infrared waves, visible light waves, ultraviolet waves, x-rays, and gamma rays. Radio waves have the longest wavelength and lowest frequency. Gamma rays have the shortest wavelength and highest frequency.


How the period and frequency of electromagnetic waves change between gamma rays and microwaves?

Gamma rays have a shorter wavelength and higher frequency compared to microwaves. This means that gamma rays have a higher frequency and shorter period than microwaves. As you move from gamma rays to microwaves, the period of the electromagnetic waves increases while the frequency decreases.
