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.

<span>Temperature causes water molecules to move more quickly, because each individual molecule has more energy as it gets hotter (according to Kinetic molecular theory). If you get water hot enough, the molecules move so much that the hydrogen bonds that hold them together start to break and the water becomes a gas ... water vapor. This your answer unless there are choices.</span>
