Explanation Refraction occurs at all the frequency ranges of electromagnetic spectrum, so other frequency ranges of electromagnetic spectrum cannot ignore. For refraction phenomenon consider radio waves as an example. Radio waves are identical to light waves except for frequency, the wavelength of radio waves is on the order of 3 m to 30 , 000 m
