Electromagnetic Spectrum Wavelength Guide

This document contains a review of the electromagnetic spectrum, including questions about the relative sizes of wavelengths and frequencies across the different portions of the spectrum. It asks the learner to identify the portion of the spectrum corresponding to given wavelengths, whether certain wavelengths are larger or smaller than others, and what the colors red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet stand for in the visible light spectrum.
