TRANSVERSE
TRUE or FALSE Transverse waves transfer energy not matter
True
What kind of wave in the Electromagnetic Spectrum has the lowest frequency?
Radio Waves
TRUE or FALSE Longitudinal waves transmit matter not energy.
False
Number of of waves produced per second.
Frequency
Does white light reflect or absorb light?
White light reflects light
What is the highest point of a Transverse waves?
Crest
What part of the Electromagnetic Spectrum can we see?
Visible light
Part of a Longitudinal wave where the wave is farther apart.
Rarefaction
The interaction of light with matter that causes light to change energy, direction of motion or both and also causes skies to be blue.
Scattering
Does black light reflect or absorb light?
It absorbs light
What is the lowest point of a Transverse wave?
Trough
What kind of wave in the Electromagnetic Spectrum has the highest frequency?
Gamma Rays
What part of a Longitudinal wave where it's closer together.
Compression
The units used to measure the volume or sound
Decibels
What colors is white light made of?
All the colors
TRUE or FALSE Transverse waves require a medium
False
Example of Ultraviolet waves.
Tanning beds, Sunlight, UV lasers and LEDs
TRUE or FALSE A Longitudinal wave requires a medium
True
how loud or soft something is determined by it's amplitude.
Volume
If you were to have a black t-shirt and a white t-shirt in the summer which would heat up faster?
The black t-shirt because black absorbs light and white reflects light.
Example of a Transverse wave
Guitar strings Electromagnetic waves, Earthquakes S-waves
What kind of wave gives you the warmth to feel fire?
Infrared Waves
Example of a Longitudinal waves
Slinky/ springs, Seismic P-waves sand Sound waves
The transfer of energy to particles of matter energy from waves is "soaked up" by a substance
Absorption
TRUE or FALSE white and black light are colors in physics.
False white and black light are not colors in physics
