Electromagnetic waves are a type of energy wave that have both electric and magnetic fields.

They can travel through empty space and through solid objects, like air, water, and metal.

Examples of electromagnetic waves include visible light, X-rays, microwaves, radio waves, and gamma rays.

The frequency of an electromagnetic wave determines its type and its energy. The Electromagnetic Spectrum is the range of all forms of electromagnetic radiation, from radio to gamma.

The frequency of visible light is between 400-700 nanometers (nm).

Radio waves have frequencies between 3 kHz and 300 GHz, while microwaves have frequencies between 300 MHz and 300 GHz.

Gamma rays have the highest frequency of all electromagnetic waves, ranging from 10^14 to 10^20 Hz.
