Yes, it is. Electromagnetic (EM) waves have frequency and amplitude (as well as polarity and a couple of other things), and because it has frequency, it can be distributed across a range of frequencies, or a spectrum - an electromagnetic spectrum. Light is a range of frequencies in what we call the optical or visible range. It is bounded on the lower end (lower frequency, lower energy, longer wavelength) by infrared (IR) light, and on the upper end (higher frequency, higher energy, shorter wavelength) by ultraviolet (UV) light.
Yes. Light is also called a "electromagnetic wave"
Short answer is Yes, it is the same thing.
Light is electromagnetic radiation, particularly radiation of a wavelength that is visible to the human eye.
Maxwell's equations of electromagnetism state that light is EM radiation.
yes because light does not need matter to travel through
yes this answer is right because I am looking at my sci. book and that is what is says
Yes, however, your eye does not pick up the "wave length." It picks up the radiation from that wave length.
No. The light bulb itself isn't any kind of energy. But the heat and light that come
from it when it's turned on are both excellent examples of electromagnetic energy.
yes
Yes, visible light makes up the middle region of the Electromagnetic spectrum. Therefore, light is a form electromagnetic radiation.
Light is the most common form of electromagnetic radiation that you see in your daily life.
Energy transfered in the form of electromagnetic waves is classified according to wavelength of the radiation. Radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet light, X-rays and gamma rays are all forms of electromagnetic radiation.
Visible light (lol)
yes, it's between red and yellow waves on the electromagnetic spectrum.
Yes, visible light makes up the middle region of the Electromagnetic spectrum. Therefore, light is a form electromagnetic radiation.
They are not different.Visible light IS electromagnetic radiation.
They travel at the speed of light (c = 3*108 m/s)
They all travel at the SPEED OF LIGHT.
No, electromagnetic radiation does not include only visible light.
Light, heat, and a very small amount of electromagnetic field.
Gamma radiation is the fastest, as it is light. speed of gamma radiation = c (light speed) speed of beta radiation < c ( below light speed ) speed of alpha radiation < c/10 ( far below light speed )
Visible light is a form of electromagnetic radiation that is visible.
All electromagnetic radiation travels at the same speed. We usually call it "the speed of light" but it's the same for all other forms of electromagnetic waves.
Electromagnetic radiation.
electromagnetic radiation includes all types of the electromagnetic spectrum
Electromagnetic Radiation requires no medium. Light is a form of electromagnetic radiation, and it can traverse the stars.
