Gamma rays are the shortest and highest energy waves in the electromagnetic spectrum.


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.

What 2 electromagnetic waves have the highest energy highest frequency and shortest sound waves?

X-rays and gamma rays have the highest energy, highest frequency, and shortest wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum. Sound waves, on the other hand, are mechanical waves that require a medium to propagate and are not part of the electromagnetic spectrum.


Do radio waves have the shortest wavelegnth of all EM waves?

No. In fact, when people try to carve up the EM spectrum into categories and typesand classifications and then name each part, they usually wind up giving the name"radio waves" to the part with the longestwavelengths.


What is the shorest wavelength to the shorest wavelength?

You meant Shortest to Longest? In terms of light waves: the shortest visible is ~380nm (and realistically 420nm). the longests visible is ~830 nm (and realistically ~700 nm). Interms of electromagnetic waves (of which light is part): the shortest know are cosmic rays ~sub angstroms! the longest would be the length of the known universe!
