100
The pattern in which light waves travel.
What is a wave form?
100
The high point on a wave.
What is the crest?
100
Process in which light waves pass from one substance to another.
What is refraction?
100
Energy released when an atom loses some energy.
What is a photon?
100
The low point on a wave.
What is the trough?
200
Measures the distance between the center of the wave and the crest.
What is amplitude?
200
The effect of light rays striking a rough surface.
What are light rays getting scattered in all directions?
200
The point at which light rays meet when reflected or refracted.
What is the focal point?
200
The type of wave that moves at right angles to the direction that the wave travels.
What is a transverse wave?
200
The angle that a light ray will be reflected on a smooth surface.
What is the same angle in which it struck the surface?
300
The measurement of the number of waves that pass a point in a certain amount of time.
What is frequency?
300
Type of light in which all the light waves are at the same wavelength.
What is a laser light?
300
The speed of sound and the speed of light.
What is 340m/s - 300,000km/s?
300
A wave in which matter vibrates in the same direction as the energy waves that travel through it.
What is a compressional wave?
300
A process that causes light waves to change speed and direction.
What is refraction?
400
Causes light to be reflected, spreading out the image, making it appear larger.
What is a convex mirror?
400
Causes the light rays to come together as they pass through the lense.
What is a convex lense?
400
Light uses this process to travel through a fiber optics tube.
What is reflection?
400
Causes the light rays to spread apart as they pass through the lense.
What is a concave lense?
400
Causes light to be reflected, focusing the image, making it appear smaller.
What is a concave mirror?
500
This happens when sound wave increase in frequency.
What is an increase in pitch or tone?
500
What allows us to see colors?
What are light sensitive cells called cones?
500
The difference between the sound waves of a whisper and an explosion.
What is the level of amplitude, loudness, or decibels?
500
The information presented by the electromagnetic spectrum.
What are the sun's radiant energy, wavelengths of light, and the type of radiant energy that we can see?
500
This happens when sound waves increase in amplitude.
What is an increase in energy, loudness, or decibels?
