How is wavelength measured?
From trough to crest (B to D)
From the center line to the crest (B to C)
From the crest of one wave to the crest of the next (B to F)
From one end of the wave to the far end of the wave (A to H)
Frequency is how many waves pass per second.
Why are oranges orange...?
Because they emit orange light from their cells
Because they absorb all visible wavelengths except orange (630-605 nm) which is reflected back into your eyes
Because they are actually a combination of some green and a little more red light
Because orange is the yummiest color
Which of these electromagnetic waves has the longest wavelength on the EM spectrum?
Ultraviolet
Visible red light
Microwaves
x-rays
The electromagnetic (EM) spectrum is referring to what...?
A range of electrical magnets
A variety of light waves that vary in length and frequency
How rainbows are made!
Energy waves that are percieved as sounds
Which EM wave has the highest frequency and shortest wavelength?
x-rays
Visible light
Gamma waves
Radio Waves
True or False: Sound waves always require a medium to travel through.
True
False
What type of wave is a sound wave?
Transverse wave
Shock wave
Compression wave
Volume wave
In light waves higher amplitude means?
Louder volume
Brighter light
Blue light
Red light
How are sound waves created?
By certain wavelength being reflected off objects and into our eyes
By vibrations compressing the air in a repeating wave
By tiny vibrations rubbing together
By sound particles traveling in a transverse wave
This picture is an example of what kind of wave?
Particle wave
Sound wave
Light wave
Snow wave
Which wave has the highest frequency?
Red (1)
Blue (2)
Green (3)
They are all the same frequency
Knowing these are light waves, which would be blue light?
The high frequency wave
The low frequency wave
Neither are blue light
How do you measure amplitude?
From the bottom of a wave to the top of a wave
From the middle of a wave to the top of a wave
From the crest of one wave to the crest of the next wave
From the beginning to the end of the wave
Which wave has a higher amplitude?
The red one
The blue one
The same amplitude
