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 are wavelenghts?

wavelenght is the distance between the 2 peaks in sound waves and can be calculated by Wavelenght is = wave speed/ frequency or wave speed __________ frequency


Violet light has the shortest wave length?

No violet light does not have the shortest wavelength. Cosmic rays have the shortest wavelenght which is 10-18 m. Due to its shortest wavelength it has the highest frequency and thus it travels the largest distance.
