nope ... but close
a prism "splits" light because the glass has an index of refraction
... different colors (frequencies) have different speeds ... in glass
Which choice correctly describes the waves in the electromagnetic spectrum?
The waves within the electromagnetic spectrum are all longitudinal waves which move at the same speed in a vacuum.
The waves within the electromagnetic spectrum are longitudinal and transverse waves which move at the same speed in a vacuum.
The waves within the electromagnetic spectrum are all transverse waves which move at different speeds in a vacuum.
The waves within the electromagnetic spectrum are all transverse waves which move at the same speed in a vacuum.
Is it the third one?

whats the correct one then ?
The bands within the spectrum are made of fluctuating electric and magnetic fields and have a wide range of frequencies and wavelengths.
answer is 1,4,5 LOOOOl
