The correct answer is C) The capacity to do work is called power.

The capacity to do work is defined as energy. Power is defined as the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred (Power = Work/Time or Energy/Time). Therefore, statement C is incorrect.

A) The Kelvin scale is indeed called the absolute scale because its zero point (0 K) is absolute zero, the theoretical point at which particles have minimal motion. B) The visible light spectrum generally ranges from approximately 400 nm (violet) to 700 nm (red). D) Gamma rays are electromagnetic waves with the shortest wavelengths and highest frequencies, making their wavelengths less than those of X-rays.
