From longest to shortest wavelength:

1) Radio waves

2) Microwaves

3) Infrared

4) Visible light

5) Ultraviolet

6) X-rays

7) Gamma rays

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are periodic oscillations of the electric and the magnetic field in a plane perpendicular to the direction of motion the wave itself.

All electromagnetic waves travel in a vacuum with the the same speed, which is know as the speed of light; it is one of the fundamental constants of nature, and its value is

Electromagnetic waves are classified into 7 different types, depending on their wavelength/frequency. From longest to shortest wavelength (and so, from lowest to highest frequency, since frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength), we have (with their correspondant wavelength):

Radio waves (>1 m)

Microwaves (1 mm - 1 m)

Infrared (750 nm - 1 mm)

Visible light (380 nm - 750 nm)

Ultraviolet (10 nm - 380 nm)

X-rays (0.01 nm - 10 nm)

Gamma rays (<0.01 nm)

energy can be converted from one form to another, but it cannot be created or destroyed in ordinary chemical or physical means. do not understand what you are asking but hope this
