Electromagnetic waves are categorized according to their frequency f or, equivalently, according to their wavelength λ = c/f. Visible light has a wavelength range from ~400 nm to ~700 nm.

Frequency: Is the number of waves that pass a certain point in a specified amount of time.

Trough: The low point of the wave cycle.

Wavelength: The distance between two successive peaks.

Electromagnetic wave: One of the waves that are propagated by simultaneous periodic variations of electric and magnetic field intensity.

We simply asked to name three uses for mercury.
The most common and well-known use of mercury is the production of thermometers. It's property to stay liquid at room temperature makes it ideal for a temperature indicator. However, the use of mercury is thermometers has been phased out due to health hazards.
It is also used to form an amalgam which is the result of its combination with silver or gold. Mercury has been used to mine gold and silver. This application has also been phased out.
Today's use of mercury includes mercury-vapor lamps which are the bright lamps used in high-ways.
