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

Keywords: Electromagnetic spectrum, electromagnetic waves.

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).

What is the speed of terminal velocity?
ivann1987 [24]
The so-called "terminal velocity" is the fastest that something can fall
through a fluid.  Even though there's a constant force pulling it through,
the friction or resistance of plowing through the surrounding substance
gets bigger as the speed grows, so there's some speed where the resistance
is equal to the pulling force, and then the falling object can't go any faster.

A few examples:
-- the terminal velocity of a sky-diver falling through air,
-- the terminal velocity of a pecan falling through honey,
-- the terminal velocity of a stone falling through water.

It's not possible to say that "the terminal velocity is ----- miles per hour".
If any of these things changes, then the terminal velocity changes too:

-- weight of the falling object
-- shape of the object
-- surface texture (smoothness) of the object
-- density of the surrounding fluid
-- viscosity of the surrounding fluid .

Which of the following best describes the circuit shown below?
Rudiy27

Answer:

Short circuit

Explanation:

The given figure shows a short circuit. It is defined as the circuit which allows the flow of electric current when there is no resistance. It shows a battery, bulb and connecting wires.

The wire across the bulb is connected from one terminal to another without any resistance in between them.

So, the correct option is (d) " short circuit ".
