Answer to Question 1

Basic names are given to electromagnetic waves depending on the frequency and
wavelength ranges within which they fall. They are further classified by the method
by which they are generated or detected.

Answer to Question 2

The acceleration of an electrically charged particle (electron, proton, or ion) will
release energy that spreads outward as electromagnetic waves.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
