high frequency waves are waves which pass a certain point a very high number of times every second, such as gamma rays and ultrasound waves for example. They generally have very short wavelengths.
The term "high frequency" generally refers to any radio frequency between 3 and 30 megahertz. When applied to electricity, it refers to the periodic reversing of the direction of the electric current called AC (alternating current) as opposed to direct current which flows in one direction only. The normal frequency found in homes operates at 60Hz. Anything higher than 60Hz would be considered high frequency, but they are usually found in electronics applications.
Frequency means how quickly something repeats - some cyclical event, such as a vibration. High frequency means that something repeats many times per second.
Frequency is expressed in hertz (Hz); 1 hertz = 1 vibration per second, or more generally, one cycle per second.
There is a system of formal designation of radio, corresponding to decades (10 times)
of frequency/wavelength. You'll recognize some of the abbreviations, like VHF and UHF:
Very Low Frequency (VLF)
3 - 30 KHz
100,000 - 10,000 meters
Low Frequency (LF)
30 - 300 KHz
10,000 - 1,000 meters
Medium Frequency (MF)
300 KHz - 3 MHz
1,000 - 100 meters
The one you
asked about:
High Frequency (HF)
3 - 30 MHz
100 - 10 meters
Very High Frequency (VHF)
30 - 300 MHz
10 - 1 meter
Ultra High Frequency (UHF)
300 MHz - 3 GHz
1 meter - 10 cm
Super High Frequency (SHF)
3 - 30 GHz
10 - 1 cm
Extreme High Frequency (EHF)
30 - 300 GHz
1 cm - 1 mm
capable of use for long- distance communication on the moon
because high ones are called high and low ones are called low. simples.
i would believe it to be gamma rays
Gamma ray
Radio Waves.
No. The GPS signal is high-frequency radio waves. High frequency radio waves cannot travel through water.
The speed of a radio wave is constant and is just under the speed of light at 300^6 metres per second whether the signal is travelling toward or away from the reciever. What I think you are asking is about Doppler shift in which case a receiver travelling towards the emitter or visa versa would experience the compression of radio waves and therefore a frequency shift to a higher frequency and when travelling away the wave would be elongated which would result in a lower frequency signal.
An X-ray is a high frequency (high energy) electromagnetic wave. It is much higher in frequency than any broadcast wave. The only electromagnetic radiation with higher frequency (shorter wavelength) than the X-ray is the gamma ray.
ultrasonic wave is sound frequency
The frequency of a radio wave compares to the frequency of the vibrating electrons that make it because the frequency of a radio wave is proportional to the frequency of the vibrating electrons that make it.
Radio waves are lower frequency.

Gamma ray
Radio Waves.
FM radio is transmitted anywhere in the spectrum of 88Mhz to 108Mhz
That wave is called as electromagnetic wave. It has got a spectrum of very high frequency gamma rays to very low frequency radio waves. They all have the same speed. That is the speed of light.
James Frederick Ward has written: 'National frequency standardization by high frequency radio propagation' -- subject(s): Charts, diagrams, Frequency standards, Ionospheric radio wave propagation
The frequency of a wave is not directly related to the wave length. A low frequency wave or a high frequency wave may be either long-wave or short-wave.
if any one willing ti share the answer . pls mail it to sanjaydey.dey07@gmail.com it will be a great help, as i m too looking to make a high frequency radio wave generator from scratch, Thank you
Speed, wavelength and frequency.
