The electromagnetic spectrum includes all electromagnetic waves, from radio waves with long wavelengths and low frequencies to gamma rays with short wavelengths and high frequencies. Which statement best describes how fast these waves travel in a vacuum?

Gamma rays travel much faster than others because they have the highest frequencies.

High-frequency waves travel somewhat faster than low-frequency waves.

Infrared waves travel faster than ultraviolet waves.

All electromagnetic waves travel at the same speed.

All electromagnetic waves travel at the same speed.

Emely Bradford · Answer 2

When traveling in a vacuum, electronic waves from the electromagnetic spectrum all travel at the same speed. Velocity is speed with direction, so they would all travel at the same velocity, realtively speaking. But frequency and wavelength are quite different
