Final answer:

The type of electromagnetic radiation that includes the wavelength 10^(-7) m is visible light.

Step-by-step explanation:

The type of electromagnetic radiation that includes the wavelength 10-7 m is visible light.

The electromagnetic spectrum ranges from high-frequency gamma rays to low-frequency radio waves. Visible light is the relatively small range of electromagnetic frequencies that can be sensed by the human eye. On the electromagnetic spectrum, visible light falls between ultraviolet and infrared light.

So, electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength of 10-7 m is part of the visible light spectrum

Step-by-step explanation:

Regions of the Electromagnetic Spectrum

Listed below are the approximate wavelength, frequency, and energy limits

of the various regions of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Wavelength (m) Frequency (Hz) Energy (J)

Radio > 1 x 10-1 < 3 x 109 < 2 x 10-24

Microwave 1 x 10-3 - 1 x 10-1 3 x 109 - 3 x 1011 2 x 10-24- 2 x 10-22

Infrared 7 x 10-7 - 1 x 10-3 3 x 1011 - 4 x 1014 2 x 10-22 - 3 x 10-19

Optical 4 x 10-7 - 7 x 10-7 4 x 1014 - 7.5 x 1014 3 x 10-19 - 5 x 10-19

UV 1 x 10-8 - 4 x 10-7 7.5 x 1014 - 3 x 1016 5 x 10-19 - 2 x 10-17

X-ray 1 x 10-11 - 1 x 10-8 3 x 1016 - 3 x 1019 2 x 10-17 - 2 x 10-14

Gamma-ray < 1 x 10-11 > 3 x 1019 > 2 x 10-14
