Answer:

1. Which has the longest wave length?

  a. Microwaves

2. which has the highest frequency?

  a. X-Rays

Explanation:

The more spread out the wave is, the longer the wavelength.

The less spread out the wave is, that higher the frequency.

EX: Spread out wave=Low frequency

      Spread out wave=Longer wavelength.

Ex: Compact wave=High frequency

     Compact wave=Shorter wavelength

Ex: Long wavelength=Low frequency

Ex: Short wavelength=High frequency.

The shorter the wavelength, the higher the frequency. So, as the wavelength gets longer, the frequency will get lower. And as the wavelength gets shorter, the frequency will get higher.
