Abstract

The article provides information on how the complete electromagnetic spectrum was primarily designed or planned. The researcher first describes the properties of light since the electromagnetic spectrum is a collective range of possible lights. It was determined that there is a relationship between the wavelength of a light and its frequency. The research also cites the study made by Danish scientist Hans Ørsted which proved that there was a connection between electricity and magnetism.
