Staring into the Sun
This plasma body in the sky emits all ranges of the EM spectrum
What is the Sun
Measurement of peak-to-peak on a wave
What is wavelength
True/False: Clouds are able to block incoming UV radiation
False
this is the color produced by mixing yellow and blue light
What is green
Our eyes only see this range of the EM spectrum, everything else is either felt or not perceived
What is visible light spectrum
Measurement of the midpoint of a wave to the top of the wave
What is the amplitude?
The highest energy wave in the EM Spectrum, able to travel through all matter
What are gamma waves
this is the color produced by mixing red and blue
What is purple
This part of the spectrum is used by many predators in dark environments, it is what is used in "Night-Vision" goggles primarily
What is the infrared
Number of wave-peaks per second
What is frequency
These waves are absorbed by melanin in the skin?
What is UV radiation
This is the color produced by mixing yellow and red
What is orange
travels in a straight line
What is light
In sound, if I increase the amplitude then I increase the.....
What is Volume
The layer of the atmosphere comprised of O3 and is the primary layer for absorbing UV
What is the Ozone Layer
This is the wavelength/s that are being absorbed by that object when we see something red
What is purple, indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange
When I look to the stars, some are moving away from me; I know this because they appear ______ in color
What is red shift?
With sound, increased distance between wave frequency or longer wavelengths
What is lower pitch?
This wave is responsible for moving particles back and forth to create a warming effect due to friction.
(also can be used for crowd control!)
What are microwaves?
These three colors, in varying amounts, can be used by things like monitors to produce every color we could possibly see
What is RED/GREEN/BLUE or MAGENTA/CYAN/YELLOW
