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.

An unglazed piece of porcelain, used to test the characteristic streak of minerals by rubbing the mineral across the tile. Streak plates have a hardness of about 6.5 on the Mohs scale and cannot be used for testing harder minerals.
Answer:
i. 7.5 m
ii. 15000 N
Explanation:
Area under vt graph shows the displacement
so area of triangle ABE= 1/2×15×2
=7.5 m
ii) F=ma
here, m=1000kg
and a=v-u/t
=15-0/1
a=15
F=1000×15=15000N
D. Reflects
The object absorbs the rest of the color spectrum
