Yes. My three sources were in complete agreement on the high and low limits of
each range, even unto the fourth significant figure. This unanimity inspired in me
a deep feeling of calm satisfaction, and further bolstered my conviction that Science
knows what it's talking about, that there is a purpose to our lives, and that all's
right with the world.
The visible color of electromagnetic radiation with the shortest wavelength is violet. The wavelength of violet light ranges from approximately 380 to 450 nanometers.
The human eye can detect electromagnetic radiation within the visible light spectrum, which ranges from approximately 400 to 700 nanometers in wavelength. This corresponds to the colors of the rainbow, including violet, blue, green, yellow, orange, and red.
Visible light occupies a small portion of the full electromagnetic spectrum, representing about 0.0035% of the total range. It ranges from approximately 400 to 700 nanometers in wavelength, corresponding to the colors violet through red.
These are all forms of electromagnetic radiation, which travel in waves at different frequencies and wavelengths. They differ in energy levels and how they interact with matter. Electromagnetic spectrum ranges from radio waves with the lowest energy and longest wavelength to gamma rays with the highest energy and shortest wavelength.
Humans can see a small portion of the electromagnetic spectrum known as visible light, which ranges from approximately 400 to 700 nanometers in wavelength. This spectrum includes colors from violet to red. However, we cannot see other parts of the electromagnetic spectrum, such as ultraviolet or infrared radiation, which are outside the visible range.

The light spectrum is the range of electromagnetic radiation that is visible to the human eye. It consists of different wavelengths of light, each corresponding to a different color. The visible light spectrum ranges from violet (shortest wavelength) to red (longest wavelength).
Different colors of visible light represent different wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation. Visible light ranges from violet (shorter wavelength) to red (longer wavelength), with each color corresponding to a specific wavelength on the electromagnetic spectrum. Each color has a unique energy level and frequency, which determines its appearance to the human eye.
No. Visible light is actually a very small part of the electromagnetic spectrum which ranges from very short wavelength high frequency electromagnetic waves such as gamma radiation up to very long wavelength, low frequency electromagnetic waves such as radio waves. For more information on the electromagnetic spectrum and the small part of it made up of visible light, see the related link.
The electromagnetic spectrum ranges from long to short wavelengths in this order: radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays, and gamma rays. Each type of electromagnetic wave has different properties and uses based on its wavelength.
No, the position of a wave in the electromagnetic spectrum is determined by its wavelength and frequency. The electromagnetic spectrum ranges from radio waves with longer wavelengths to gamma rays with shorter wavelengths.

The electromagnetic spectrum is the range of all possible frequencies of electromagnetic radiation.[1] The "electromagnetic spectrum" of an object is the characteristic distribution of electromagnetic radiation emitted or absorbed by that particular object. The electromagnetic spectrum extends from below frequencies used for modern radio through to gamma radiation at the short-wavelength end, covering wavelengths from thousands of kilometers down to a fraction of the size of an atom. The long wavelength limit is the size of the universe itself, while it is thought that the short wavelength limit is in the vicinity of the Planck length, although in principle the spectrum is infinite and continuous. EM radiation with a wavelength between 380 nm and 760 nm (790-400 terahertz) is detected by the human eye and perceived as visible light. So only a very small portion of the entire spectrum is visible.
