No. The spectrum means the entire range of wavelengths that electromagnetic waves can have, ranging from x-rays and shorter waves right up to the kilometre-long waves used for submarine communications and long-range navigation.

What determines the amount of energy wave has?
Electromagnetic Spectrum
What wave has a color spectrum that is known as roygbiv?
That wave is called as electromagnetic wave. It has got a spectrum of very high frequency gamma rays to very low frequency radio waves. They all have the same speed. That is the speed of light.
What kind of wave is beyond the red end of the spectrum?
The same as the red spectrum, an electromagnetic wave with a different frequency.

What are the examples of electromagnetic wave that we can find in electromagnetic spectrum?
-- a radio wave -- a heat wave -- a yellow wave -- a blue wave -- an ultraviolet wave -- an X-ray -- a gamma ray
what kind of wave is a gamma wave?
A gamma ray is an electromagnetic wave. It has the highest frequency (and energy) as well as the shortest wavelength on any wave on the electromagnetic spectrum.
What are the waves?
radio wave is form of electromagnetic energy which has the longest wavelength in electromagnetic spectrum
Which wave has the highest frequency in the electromagnetic spectrum?
Gamma Rays
Why isn't sound a part of the em spectrum?
Sound is a mechanical wave, not an electromagnetic wave.
Transverse wave which is not a part of electromagnetic spectrum?
Water ripples? Mexican wave? xD
