Answer: It has a range of visible and invisible forms of radiation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Electromagnetic wave is defined as the wave which is associated with both electrical and magnetic component associated with them. They can travel in vacuum as well and travel with the speed of light i.e
2.998* 10^8ms^(-1)

The electromagnetic radiations consist of radio waves, microwaves, infrared ,Visible , ultraviolet, X rays and gamma rays arranged in order of increasing frequency and decreasing wavelengths.

Only visible light is visible to naked eyes.

The relationship between wavelength and frequency of the wave follows the equation:


\\u=(c)/(\lambda)

where,


\\u = frequency of the wave

c = speed of light


\lambda = wavelength of the wave

From the above relation, it is visible that wavelength and frequency follow inverse relation. For increase in wavelength, the value of frequency decreases and vice-versa.
