Visible light waves are electromagnetic waves, within a certain range of frequencies. The wavelength of visible light is between about 400 and 700 nm. Some of the characteristics of electromagnetic waves include:* Carried by particles called photons
* The wave is a wave in the electric and magnetic fields

* In a vacuum, this wave (and the photons) propagates at the so-called speed of light, which is about 300 million meters/second.
