Solution
The correct option is C Infrared region lnfrared radiation, often abbreviated as IR, the large band of infrared wavelengths extends from the far-red portion of the visible light spectrum (around 700 - 780 nanometers) to about one millimeter in wavelength. This type of radiation is associated with the thermal region where visible light is not necessarily detectable or even present. As high temperature is developed at the moment of atomic explosion the wavelength of the light coming from that region lie in the infrared region.
