Identify the 3 main differences between Radio Waves and Gamma Rays.

• Radio waves have lower energy, longer wavelength, and lower frequency compared to gamma rays.

• Radio waves have higher energy, shorter wavelength, and higher frequency compared to gamma rays.

• Radio waves and gamma rays have the same wavelength, frequency, and energy.

• Radio waves are visible to the human eye, while gamma rays are not.

A simple motor...

• consists of a stationary field magnet that creates a magnetic field, and a rotating coil of wire on an axle that spins due to magnetic repulsion and attraction.

• uses rotating coils of wire, stationary magnets creating magnetic fields and a shaft for rotation The magnetic field induces an electric field and current can flow.
