A range of wavelengths of electromagnetic waves is called ____
A
spectrum
B
telescope
C
NASA
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The entire range of wavelength is called electromagnetic spectrum. The electromagnetic spectrum is a continuum of all electromagnetic waves arranged according to frequency and wavelength. The Sun, Earth, and other bodies radiate electromagnetic energy of varying wavelengths.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Electromagnetic Spectrum. The electromagnetic (EM) spectrum is the range of all types of EM radiation. Radiation is energy that travels and spreads out as it goes – the visible light that comes from a lamp in your house and the radio waves that come from a radio station are two types of electromagnetic radiation.

Detailed explanation-3: -The electromagnetic spectrum (EMS) is the general name given to the known range of electromagnetic radiation. Wavelengths increase from approximately 10-18 m to 100 km, and this corresponds to frequencies decreasing from 3 × 1026 Hz to 3 ×103 Hz.

Detailed explanation-4: -The electromagnetic spectrum is a range of wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation. From long to short wavelength, the EM spectrum includes radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, x-rays and gamma rays.
