The difference is that with the longer wavelengths, the lower the frequency and the speed of the waves will be. The smaller the wavelength is, the higher the frequency and the speed will be. Wavelength is measured by the distance between two spectrums (the highest point on the wave)
do not copy this answer.write it in your own words or you will learn nothing. also, if you copy, that is plagarism. I hope you enjoy this breif definiton. thank you.

Do short wavelength waves bend more or less than long wavelength waves?
Short wavelength waves bend less than long wavelength waves when they pass through a medium because they have higher frequencies and shorter distances between wave crests. This phenomenon is known as refraction.
What wave would have more enery one with a long wavelength or a short wavelength?
Both a wave with long wavelength and a wave with short wavelength can have a lot of energy, or little energy.Specifically in the case of electromagnetic waves, a short wavelength corresponds to high energy - but this is only the energy PER PHOTON. But note that each of such waves usually consists of a lot of photons.
Does a pitched baseball have a long wavelength or a short wavelength?
There is a simple answer and a complicated answer. The simple anser is, "Neither", the complicated answer is , "It depends."
Is the wavelength of infrared light too long or short for humans to see?
The wavelength of infrared light is too long for humans to see.
Weight difference between short ton and long ton?
A short (US) ton is equal to 2,000 pounds and a long (UK) ton is equal to 2,240 pounds.
Do radio waves have short or long wavelength?
Short wavelength
What is the difference between a short- and long-term goal?

Do short wavelength waves bend more or less than long wavelength waves?
Short wavelength waves bend less than long wavelength waves when they pass through a medium because they have higher frequencies and shorter distances between wave crests. This phenomenon is known as refraction.

Does ROY G. BIV list colors from long wavelength to short wavelength or short to long wavelength?
The color of visible light with the longest wavelength is red; the color with the shortest is violet. So "ROY G. BIV" lists the colors from long to short wavelength. Just to confuse you, we'll also mention that it lists them from lowest to highest frequency.
What affects light with short wavelength more than light with long wavelength?
Scattering of light
What is the difference between a long and short horned grasshopper?
Sounds to me like it'd be the length of their horns that is the difference.
