    Answer: On the basis of speed they are all equivalent.

    Yellow light = Fm radio wave = Green light = X-ray = AM radio wave = Infrared wave

    Explanation:

    Yellow light, Fm radio wave, Green light, X-ray, AM radio wave and Infrared wave are all electromagnetic waves, and all electromagnetic waves move at the same vacuum speed which is the speed of light and is approximately 3.0x10^8 m/s.

    They only differ in wavelength and frequency

    c = λf

    c (speed of light) = λ (wavelength) x f (frequency)

    Therefore; on the basis of speed they are all equivalent.

    Yellow light = Fm radio wave = Green light = X-ray = AM radio wave = Infrared wave
