Sound
Sound waves are this type of mechanical wave.
Longitudinal
Visible light is a small portion of this spectrum.
Electromagnetic
Magnets are surrounded by forces organized in a ____________
MAGNETIC FIELD
This famous scientist discovered that radium emitted strange rays she called radioactivity.
Marie Curie
The type of wave that sound is part of, because it requires a medium to transmit energy.
MECHANICAL
Bending light when it travels at an angle from one transparent medium to another is called this.
Refraction
The circular path that electrical current flows through is called this.
A circuit
This type of reaction involves splitting heavy atoms like uranium to produce energy.
Nuclear fission
The frequency of the sound wave corresponds to this sound quality.
Pitch
This famous scientist showed that light can behave as both a particle and a wave.
Albert Einstein
This is how hard it is for electricity to move through a conductor and is measured in ohms.
Resistance
This type of reaction involves combining light elements like hydrogen to produce heavier elements.
Nuclear fusion
What slows down or speeds up sound?
The type of medium
This type of lens is thicker in the middle and thinner around the edges.
Convex
This type of charging occurs when a charged object comes near neutral object
Charging by induction
This Scottish scientist showed that electricity and magnetism are two sides of the same force he called electromagnetism.
James Clerk Maxwell
