The wavelength of electromagnetic radiation ranges from less than 10^-12 m to about 10^3 m.
The Electromagnetic spectrum can be categorized as( starting from the lowest):
1. Gamma rays- <10^-12 nm
2.X-rays- <10 nm
3. Ultraviolet rays- 10nm to 400nm
4.Visible light- 400nm to 750nm
5.Infrared rays- 750 nm to 1 mm
6. Microwaves - 1mm to 30cm
7. Radiowaves- > 30cm
The gamma rays have the shortest wavelength, lowest frequency and the highest energy whereas radiowaves have the highest wavelength, highest frequency and the lowest energy.
