How does the thickness of a material affect the transmission of light through it?

Thicker materials absorb more light

Thicker materials transmit more light

Thickness has no effect on light transmission

Thicker materials reflect more light

Create a model to demonstrate how light is absorbed by different colored surfaces.

Dark colors absorb more light than light colors

Light is absorbed equally by all colors

Light colors absorb more light than dark colors

Color does not affect light absorption

Explain why sunglasses are effective at reducing glare.

They absorb and reduce the intensity of reflected light

Develop a model to explain how microwaves heat food.

Microwaves are absorbed by water molecules in the food, causing them to vibrate and produce heat

Microwaves reflect off the food

Microwaves pass through the food without interaction

Microwaves are refracted by the food

Which of the following statements BEST describes the interaction of a compressional sound wave and matter?

Sound waves transfer energy through matter, but the matter does not travel with them.

Sound waves can transfer energy only through open space or a vacuum.

Sound waves can travel through a vacuum and are slowed down by matter.

Sound waves do not transfer energy or matter.

The diagram below represents the electromagnetic spectrum. LED’s (light-emitting diodes) can produce light in different colors. Different LEDs require different amounts of energy based on the energy of the light produced. Which color LED (violet, blue, green, yellow, orange, red) has more energy?

Violet, because light with a shorter wavelength has higher energy

Violet, because light with a lower frequency has higher energy

Red, because light with a longer wavelength has higher energy

Red, because light with a higher frequency has higher energy

Select the correct order of waves on the EMS from the longest wavelength to the shortest wavelength

Radio, Micro, Infra, Visible, Ultra, X-ray, Gamma

Gamma, X-ray, Ultra, Vis, Infra, Micro, Radio

Vis, Micro, Infra, Ultra, X-ray, Gamma, Radio

Micro, Radio, Vis, Infra, Ultra, X-ray, Gamma

Which of the following lists components of the electromagnetic spectrum in order from the lowest frequency to the highest frequency?

radio waves, visible spectrum, xrays, gamma rays

microwaves, infrared, gamma rays, xrays

infrared, xrays, gamma rays, microwaves

gamma rays, xrays, visible spectrum, radio waves

Shonda is learning about a new kind of material that might be used to make new satellites, and she wonders if light can damage the material. The table below shows what happens when different types of light hit the material. Based on this information, which type of light is more likely to damage the material?

Neither type of light is likely to damage the material because the material does not take in energy from either the X-ray light or the gamma ray light.

The gamma ray light is more likely to damage the material because the gamma ray light can pull energy out of the material when it passes through the material.

The X-ray light is more likely to damage the material because the X-ray light bounces off of the material, which means that it has more energy.

There is no way to know because they are two different types of light, and different types of light can change a material in different ways.
