- The basic difference between types of radiation is their differing frequencies. Each frequency has an associated wavelength. As frequency increases across the spectrum, wavelength decreases. Energy also increases with frequency. Because of this, higher frequencies penetrate matter more readily.

When it comes to light waves, violet is the highest energy color and red is the lowest energy color. Related to the energy and frequency is the wavelength, or the distance between corresponding points on subsequent waves. You can measure wavelength from peak to peak or from trough to trough.
As noted before, an electromagnetic wave has a frequency and a wavelength associated with it and travels at the speed of light, or c. The relationship among these wave characteristics can be described by vw = fλ, where vw is the propagation speed of the wave, f is the frequency, and λ is the wavelength.

- Relation Between Frequency and Wavelength
Frequency is defined as the number of oscillations of a wave per unit time being, measured in hertz(Hz). The frequency is directly proportional to the pitch. Humans can hear sounds with frequencies ranging between 20 – 20000 Hz. Sounds with frequencies over the human ears range are known as ultrasound, and sounds with frequencies less than the audi...
All points on a wave oscillate, i.e., all points on a wave exhibit a type of regular change in a particular value. For instance, when you make a wave by wiggling up and down, the rope molecules repeatedly move up and down. When you consider an electromagnetic wave, the value of magnetic and electric fields keeps changing because of the wave at a po...
You can create a wave having some frequency on a rope and then gradually make it faster. During this, you will notice that as the wavelength becomes shorter. Therefore, the relation between frequency and wavelength does exist, so let’s find out what exactly this relationship is. Another quantity is Period (T) which can be used to describe a wave. I...
The size of a wave is measured as its wavelength, which is the distance between any two corresponding points on successive waves, usually peak to peak or trough to trough. The wavelengths of the light we can see range from 400 to 700 nanometers (or billionths of a meter).
