In terms of speed, every part of the electromagnetic spectrum, (radio waves, infra-red, ultraviolet), all travel at the same speed in a vacuum, the speed of light, which is 300,000,000 m/s approx. In terms of energy, the low frequency and long wavelength end of the spectrum, such as radio, have a low energy as opposed to the high frequency and short wavelength end, such as gamma rays.

I would describe it as different frequencies of electromagnetic waves, and list the different ranges of electromagnetic waves, such as visible light, x-rays, etc.
