What waves are emitted by an incandescent bulb?

There are seven electromagnetic waves; radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X rays, and gamma rays. Radio waves are transmitted through radios (duh) and TVs. They have wavelengths greater than 0.001 meters. Cell phones use microwaves, which have wavelengths between 0.3 and 0.001 meters. Infrared waves come from (not so sure about this one) light bulbs and have wavelengths between 0.001 meters and 700 nanometers. Visible light (don't know exactly where it comes from, sorry) have wavelengths between 700 and 400 nanometers. Ultraviolet waves cause sunburn and have wavelengths between 400 and 10 nanometers. You should know where X rays come from and they have wavelengths between 10 and 0.01 nanometers. (Sorry for not including Gamma rays, I didn't have enough information on them). You can choose two of these seven and add the information if you want.
