Solution

The correct option is B

Speed


The speed of light is constant in the vacuum and it is nearly equal to 300000 km/s. This is applicable to electromagnetic waves also . Hence, all the waves of an electromagnetic spectrum move at the speed nearly equal to 300000 km/s. Different parts of the spectrum have different wavelengths, frequency and amplitude.
