![Diagram of the wavelengths of different wave types.](http://static.sciencelearn.org.nz/images/images/000/000/112/full/SS_TAS_SCI_ART_01_FundamentalsOfWaves_WaveParameters_V2.jpg?1674163718)
Every wave has a specific wavelength, but these vary widely between wave types – from hundreds of kilometres (tsunamis) to approximately a hundredth of a billionth of a metre (gamma rays).
