That depends on the speed of the waves.
If you are considering waves at the same speed, then yes, shorter wavelength equals higher frequency.
The formula is:
frequency = speed / wavelength
or
wavelength = speed / frequency
From this you can clearly see, that if speed remains constant, then when wavelength decreases the frequency will increase and vice versa.
Gamma rays have the highest frequencies and the shortest wavelengths among all electromagnetic waves. They have the highest energy and are typically emitted from nuclear reactions and some astronomical sources.
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.
I'll answer your question for a variety of waves. For sound waves, higher pitch sounds have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths. For water waves, the slowest moving waves have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths. For seismic waves, S waves have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths than P waves. For electromagnetic waves, X-rays and gamma rays have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths than, say, visible light. For quantum mechanical, de Broglie waves, particles with classical analogues of momentum have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths than individual particles.
Gamma rays have the highest energy among electromagnetic waves. They have the shortest wavelengths and highest frequencies in the electromagnetic spectrum, making them very powerful and ionizing.

Those are called gamma rays, or gamma radiation.

Yes, light is electromagnetic waves. The longest wavelengths have the lowest frequencies and the lowest temperatures. The shortest wavelengths have the highest frequencies and the highest temperatures.

Gamma waves and radio waves are both forms of electromagnetic radiation that travel at the speed of light and can carry energy and information. They both have specific frequencies and wavelengths within the electromagnetic spectrum, with gamma waves having the highest frequencies and shortest wavelengths, and radio waves having lower frequencies and longer wavelengths.
True. Microwaves have shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies compared to radio waves, falling between infrared radiation and radio waves on the electromagnetic spectrum.
