 Solutions
A complete chart of electromagnetic radiations in order of their frequencies or wavelengths is called electromagnetic spectrum.
Guidelines/Formulae
Tips
1.   All electromagnetic waves travel with the same speed (as the        speed of light).
2.   Idea of the entire chart of electro - magnetic radiation.
3.   Order of wavelengths of different e.m. waves.
 
1.  Memorise the order of different regions of e.m. waves in the       spectrum.
2.  Striking features / properties of different e.m. waves must be       learnt. For example, infrared rays when absorbed causes       heating effect.
