6.P.1.2 - Light and Color

Front

Which color has the least amount of energy?

Back

Red has the least amount of energy in the visible light spectrum.

Front

What type of material are black out curtains?

Back

Black out curtains are opaque, meaning they do not allow light to pass through.

Front

How does light travel?

Back

Light travels in transverse waves.

Front

What happens to energy as frequency increases?

Back

The higher the frequency, the higher the energy.

Front

What color do red and green light combine to make?

Back

Red and green light combine to make yellow light.

Front

What is the visible spectrum?

Back

The visible spectrum is the range of light wavelengths that can be seen by the human eye, typically from red to violet.

Front

What is the definition of opaque?

Back

Opaque materials do not allow any light to pass through.

Front

What is the definition of translucent?

Back

Translucent materials allow some light to pass through but not enough to see clearly through them.

Front

What is the definition of transparent?

Back

Transparent materials allow light to pass through without significant scattering.

Front

What is the relationship between wavelength and energy?

Back

Shorter wavelengths correspond to higher energy, while longer wavelengths correspond to lower energy.
