When light bends.

What is refraction?

100

This form of radiation has the longest wavelength and the lowest frequency of the electromagnetic spectrum.

What are radio waves?

100

This part of a wave increases when frequency decrease.

What is wavelength?

100

This color has the most energy.

What is the color violet?

100

The color of light can tell us this. 

What is the frequency, wavelength, and the temperature of the light?

200

A particle that emits light and energy.

What is a photon?

200

This form of radiation of the electromagnetic spectrum has the highest frequency and the most amount of energy.

What are Gamma rays?

200

True/false: Energy increases as frequency increases.

True

200

This color has the least energy.

What is the color red?

200

These are the colors of the rainbow.

What are the colors red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet?

300

This scientific law states that the angle a light ray hits an object is the same to the angle of the reflected light.

What is the Law of Reflection?

300

All the forms of electromagnetic radiation have this in common.

What is the fact all transmit energy and are electromagnetic waves?

300

True/False: Light can act only as a particle.

False

300

This type of stars are the hottest.

What are Blue stars?

300

This object can split white light into the colors of the rainbow.

What is a prism?

400

These materials can seem invisible, they negatively refract light, so they produce no shadow and do not reflect light.

What are metamaterials?

400

These forms of electromagnetic radiation are used for medical purposes.

What are X-rays, Ultraviolet rays and Gamma rays?

400

This is the top part of a wave.

What is the crest?

400

These stars are the coolest.

What are red stars?

400

This equation is used to find a wave's speed.

What is wavelength times frequency?

500

These types of objects transmit most or all light through it.

What are transparent objects?

500

This form of electromagnetic radiation is used for communicational purposes.

What are radio waves?

500

This part of a wave determines the amount of energy a wave has.

What is the amplitude of a wave?

500

These are the primary colors of light.

What are blue, green and red?

500

A person can see a rainbow in these conditions.
