Electromagnetic Waves

Front

As wavelength increases, frequency decreases, with frequency decreasing, energy increases.

Back

True

Front

Entire range of wavelengths or frequencies of electromagnetic radiation

Back

electromagnetic spectrum

Front

EM Waves with the longest wavelength: radio, infrared, gamma, x-ray

Back

radio

Front

What does radar stand for?

Back

radio detection and ranging

Front

Xrays and Gamma Rays have the highest frequencies, therefore, highest energies.

Back

True

Front

FM stands for

Back

Frequency Modulation

Front

Are all forms of radiation harmful?

Back

False

Front

Select the correct order of waves on the EMS from low to high energy: Radio, Micro, Infra, Visible, Ultra, X-ray, Gamma

Back

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

Front

How are Electromagnetic waves different from Mechanical waves?

Back

EM waves can travel through the vacuum of space (without particles)

Front

Wavelength and Frequency are related in that...

Back

when one increases, the other decreases (inversely proportional)
