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.
What else can I help you with?
Do waves with the shortest wavelength have the slowest frequencies?
No, waves with shorter wavelengths have higher frequencies. The wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency, meaning shorter wavelengths correspond to higher frequencies.
Which electromagnetic waves have the longest wavelength and highest frequencies?
The longest wavelengths are usually referred to as radio waves, whereas the highest frequencies are referred to as cosmic rays (the opposite end of the spectrum).
Do waves with the shortest wavelengths have the highest frequencies?
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.
What is the typical wavelength for gamma waves?
The typical wavelength for gamma waves is between 0.01 and 0.1 nanometers, which corresponds to frequencies of about 30 exahertz to 300 exahertz. These waves are the shortest and highest frequency electromagnetic waves in the electromagnetic spectrum.
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.

What are electromagnetic waves with the highest frequencies and the shortest wavelength?
Gamma rays
Which electromagnetic waves have the longest wavelength and highest frequencies?
The longest wavelengths are usually referred to as radio waves, whereas the highest frequencies are referred to as cosmic rays (the opposite end of the spectrum).
If colors have different wavelengths do they have different frequencies and temperatures?
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.

What waves have the shortest wavelenght?
Gamma rays are the waves with the shortest wavelength. The waves having highest frequency have the shortest wavelength. As gamma rays have the highest frequency starting from 10^19 and onwards so they have the shortest wavelength starting from 10^-11 and decreasing.
Waves with the longest wavelengths have the lowest frequencies true of false?
Trick question. Wavelength is not directly or indirectly proportional to frequency.
What waves the shortest wavelength and the highest frequency?
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.
Is the longest wavelength violet?
No. In the visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, the waves at the red end have the longest wavelength (lowest frequency), and those at the violet end have the shortest wavelength (highest frequency).
What waves have the shortest wavelength in the highest frequency?
Gamma waves
