The wavelength is far shorter in gamma rays, and they have a higher frequency, and their photons are much higher in energy than those of microwaves.

What electromagnetic wave has a wavelength shorter than a microwave but longer than light?

The electromagnetic wave with a wavelength shorter than a microwave but longer than light is an infrared wave. Infrared waves have wavelengths ranging from approximately 1 millimeter to 750 nanometers. These waves are commonly used in thermal imaging, remote controls, and communication technologies.


what kind of wave is a gamma wave?

A gamma ray is an electromagnetic wave. It has the highest frequency (and energy) as well as the shortest wavelength on any wave on the electromagnetic spectrum.


How is a radio wave different than a gamma wave?

Radiowave is nonionizing while gamma ray is ionizing.


Is radio wave a light wave?

How is a microwave an example of a transverse wave?

A microwave is an electromagnetic wave, which is a form of transverse wave. In transverse waves, the vibration or oscillation of the wave occurs perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. In a microwave oven, the transverse microwave radiation heats and cooks food by causing water molecules to vibrate at high frequencies.
