Electricity is NOT a part of electromagnetic spectrum.

An electromagnetic spectrum contains electromagnetic radiations arranged according to frequencies and wavelength.

<h2>Further Explanation </h2><h3>Electromagnetic waves </h3>

Electromagnetic waves are types of waves that do not require a material medium for transmission.
These waves are mostly transverse in nature, which means the direction of transmission is perpendicular to the direction of vibration of particles.
They include, light waves, radio waves, x-rays, infra-red, etc.

<h3>Electromagnetic spectrum </h3>

An electromagnetic wave shows electromagnetic waves arranged according to frequencies and wavelength.
Electromagnetic spectrum contains electromagnetic waves: Gamma rays, x-rays, Ultraviolet, Visible light, infra-red, microwaves, and radio waves.
The electromagnetic spectrum is divided into various sections based on wavelength, with gamma rays having the shortest wavelength and radio waves having the longest wavelength.
The part of the electromagnetic spectrum that we can see using our naked eyes is called the visible light spectrum.
In order of frequency, the radio waves have the lowest frequency while gamma rays have the largest frequency.

<h3>General characteristics of electromagnetic waves </h3>

They travel with the speed of light (3.0 x 10^8 m/s)
They possess energy that is given by; E =hf, where h is the plank’s constant and f is the frequency.
They are transverse in nature, and therefore, the wavelength is measured between successful crests or troughs.
They can travel through vacuum

Explanation :

The electromagnetic spectrum shows the wavelength or frequency range of any wave.

It consists of the following waves :

Gamma rays (short wavelength or high frequency)
X-rays
Ultraviolet rays
Visible light
Infrared rays
Microwaves
Radio waves (long wavelength or short frequency)

So, the purple light is not the part of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Hence, the correct option is (c).

A star’s light is alternately shifted from the blue part of the light spectrum to the red part.

g100num [7]

The answer is A because it is an example of red shift which if basically the Doppler effect , but for light. The wavelength gets longer because it has visible light has shifted into the red end of the spectrum, showing that it has a shorter frequency with a longer wavelength; meaning it is moving away from us
