  • Light - the only electromagnetic radiation that can be witnessed by the human eye.
  • Dispersion - white light being separated into different colors due to differences in degrees of refraction.
  • Reflection - the bouncing of light due to the inability to pass through them.
  • Refraction - the bending of light waves as it travels into a different medium.
  • Diffraction - the bending of light waves around the corner or edges of a barrier.
  • Opaque - aligned with diffraction, light cannot pass through as it absorbs it.
  • Interference - combination of light waves that meet
  • Red - Orange - Yellow - Green - Cyan - Blue - Violet
  • Light travels in waves in straight lines.
  • Wave - is a disturbance that transfers energy from a substance to another.
  • We only see things because they reflect light into our eyes.
  • Shadows are formed when light rays are blocked.
  • Magnets have two poles. The North and the South.
  • Like poles repel, and unlike poles attract.
  • Magnets create a magnetic field around them.
  • A bar magnet has a magnetic field around it. Leaving North and entering South.
  • To define a magnetic field, we have to understand the Magnetic Direction.
  • Magnetic Field is also called the B-Field.
  • If a moving charge moves into a magnetic field, it will experience a magnetic force.
  • Fingers - direction of the magnetic field.
  • Thumb - direction of velocity.
  • Palm - direction of the force.
  • Right hand rule (3 Fingers)
    Thumb - force
  • Right hand rule (3 Fingers)
    Index finger - magnetic field
  • Right hand rule (3 Fingers)
    Middle finger - current
  • Magnetic force is equal to the Centripetal Force
  • The wire moves because the wire itself is magnetic.
  • Magnetic field is directly proportional to the current I, and inversely proportional to the circumference
  • A CURRENT CARRYING WIRE'S INTERNAL MAGNETIC FIELD
    You put your thumb in the direction of the current and the fingers point to the direction of the field.
  • Electromagnetic Induction - a process in which a conductor is put in a particular position and magnetic field keeps varying or magnetic field is stationary and a conductor is moving.
  • Faraday's first law - whenever a conductor is placed in a varying magnetic field, EMF induces and this EMF is called an induced EMF. If the conductor is a closed circuit, then the induced current flows through it.
  • Faraday's second law - the magnitude of the induced EMF is equal to the rate of change of flux linkages.
  • LENZ'S LAW
    EMF is directly proportional to the change in flux.
  • Gauss Law - electric field produced by electric charges.
  • Faraday's Law - electric field produced by a changing magnetic field.
  • Ampere's Law - magnetic field produced by an electric current
  • Fourth Law - individual magnetic charges does not exist
  • Magnetic Field Lines - lines that show the direction and strength of the magnetic field at any point in space.
  • Magnetic Field Lines are imaginary lines that show the direction and strength of the magnetic field at any point in space.
  • Electromagnetic spectrum all travel in the same speeds in a vacuum.
