WEEK 1-2 SCI

• WAVE


  Disturbance in space
• CREST


  Highest point in the wave
• TROUGH


  lowest point in the wave
• AMPLITUDE


  lowest distance from midpoint to the wave's highest or lowest point
• WAVELENGTH


  distance between two successive identical wave parts
• FREQUENCY


  refers to the number of waves produces in one second
• SPEED


  a scalar quantity the represents the rate at which an object moves through space
• LIGHT


  refers to its ability to illuminate objects and enable vision
• ELECTRIC


  involves the flow of electric charge through conductors
• MAGNETIC


  refers to the movement of electric charges or intrinsic magnetic moments of elementary particles
• The EM wave with the longest wavelength

  RADIO WAVES
• The EM wave with the shortest wavelength

  GAMMA RAYS
• The only wavelength detectable using eyesight

  VISIBLE LIGHT
• Radiowaves, Microwaves, Infrared, Visiblelight, Ultravioletwave, X-ray, GammaRays
• SI unit of wavelength

  meters
• Longer wavelength means(wavelength)

  Farther Humps
• Shorter wavelength means(Wavelength)

  
  

  closer humps
• EM wave with the highest frequency

  Gamma Rays
• EM wave with the lowest frequency

  radio waves
• Lowest to highest frequency: Gamma, Xray, ultraviolet, visible, infrared, microwave, radio
• The only detectable frequency using eyesight

  visible light
• number of complete vibrations occurring at a point in 1 second

  Frequency
• Higher frequency means(frequency)

  many humps
• lower frequency means(Frequency)

  fewer humps
• EM wave with the highest energy


  Gamma rays
• EM wave with lowest energy


  Radio waves
• amount of energy carried by the EM wave

  Energy
• Many humps (energy)

  High energy
• Fewer humps (energy)

  Low energy
• Wavelength and Frequency

  Inversely proportional
• Frequency and Energy

  Directly proportional
• Wavelength and energy

  Inversely Porportional
