What is the relationship between wavelength and frequency?

As the wavelength increases (longer) the frequency decreases. As the wavelength decreases (shorter) the frequency increases.

As the wavelength increases (shorter) the frequency decreases. As the wavelength decreases (longer) the frequency increases.

As the wavelength decreases (longer) the frequency decreases. As the wavelength increases (shorter) the frequency increases.

As the frequency increases (longer) the wavelength decreases. As the frequency decreases (shorter) the wavelength increases.

All of the above is correct, because the order doesn’t matter

Addison wants to make a punch with fruit slices for the party. However, she wants everyone to be able to see the fruit, so she uses a glass punch bowl. Why are you able to see through the glass punch bowl?

You are able to see through the glass punch bowl because it is transparent making the light transmit through it.

You are able to see through the glass punch bowl because it is reflecting making the light transmit through it.

You are able to see through the glass punch bowl because it is refracting making the light transmit through it.

You are able to see through the glass punch bowl because it is transmitting making the light transmit through it.

Why can an electromagnetic wave through space and not a mechanical wave?

Electromagnetic waves do not need a medium therefore, they can travel through a vacuum(space). However, mechanical waves need a medium, i.e. solid, liquid and/or gas to transfer energy.

Electromagnetic waves do not need a reflection therefore, they can travel through a vacuum(space). However, mechanical waves need a medium, i.e. solid, liquid and/or gas to transfer energy.

Electromagnetic waves do not need a refraction therefore, they can travel through a vacuum(space). However, kinetic waves need a medium, i.e. solid, liquid and/or gas to transfer energy.

Electromagnetic waves do not need a transmitter therefore, they can travel through a vacuum(space). However, mechanical waves need a medium, i.e. solid, liquid and/or gas to transfer energy.

Compare infrared radiation wavelength to visible light wavelength.

Infrared radiation has a longer wavelength than visible light. However, they both can be felt as heat energy. Visible light wavelength and color we see depends on the wavelength and frequency of the wave.

visible light has a longer wavelength than infrared radiation. However, they both can be felt as heat energy. Visible light wavelength and color we see depends on the wavelength and frequency of the wave.

Why does a banana look yellow in the sunlight?

A banana looks yellow in the sunlight because it reflect the color yellow and all the other colors are absorbed.

A banana looks yellow in the sunlight because it refracts the color yellow and all the other colors are absorbed.

A banana looks yellow in the sunlight because it transmits the color yellow and all the other colors are absorbed.

A banana looks yellow in the sunlight because it passes the color yellow and all the other colors are absorbed.

How does a radio speaker generate sound?

A radio speaker generates sound using an permanent magnet and an electric coil

A radio speaker generates sound using an temporary magnet and an electric coil

A radio speaker generates sound using an mechanical wave and an electric generator

A radio speaker generates sound using an permanent magnet and an electric generator

Explain what phenomenon is occurring the picture above.

Light is being refracted as it passes from the air into the water. Therefore, the pencil looks broken

Sunlight is being reflected as it passes from the air into the water. Therefore, the pencil looks broken

waves is being refracted as it passes from the air into the water. Therefore, the pencil looks fixed
