Energy of electromagnetic radiation is directly proportional to its frequency and inversely proportional to its wavelength (E = hv = hc/λ). Gamma rays are the highest energy form of electromagnetic radiation, having the shortest wavelengths and highest frequencies among the options provided and generally in the electromagnetic spectrum.
The radiation carrying maximum energy—
