Answer to Question 1

Basic names are given to electromagnetic waves depending on the frequency and

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.
