Wave Goodbye
This is a measurement of the distance between the crest and mid-line of a transverse wave. It measures how much energy the waves carries.
What is amplitude?
This is the part of the eye where the rods and cones are.
What is the retina?
This is the part of the electromagnetic spectrum that would cause a sunburn.
What is UV Rays?
A higher (this) of a sound wave makes a louder sound.
What is amplitude?
This happens to light waves that get "trapped" and dissipate into a material or object.
What is absorbed?
This is the hard white part of the eye.
What is the sclera?
Water in a microwave begins to boil. Why?
What is the radiation causes the water molecule's motion to increase?
A lower (this) in a sound wave is perceived as a lower pitch.
What is frequency?
This part of the eye transmits images received from the retina to the brain.
What is the optic nerve?
This part of the spectrum has the longest wavelength.
What is radio waves?
Sound is this type of wave.
What is mechanical (or longitudinal)?
This is what happens when waves bounce off an object.
What is reflection?
These are the parts of a longitudinal wave.
What is a rarefaction and compression?
The function of the eye's iris.
What is control your pupil and the amount of light that enters the eye?
Double Jeopardy.
Put the EM Spectrum in order from longest wavelength to shortest wave length.
What is radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, UV, x-rays and gamma rays?
Sound waves need this in order to travel and transfer energy.
What is a medium?
Wave that bends as it passes from one medium to another.
What is refraction?
The part of the eye that sees color.
What is the cones in the retina?
Double Jeopardy
Put the Visible Light Spectrum colors in order from shortest wave length to the longest wave length.
What is violet, indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange, red?
This kind of machine turns echoes (sound waves) in to pictures.
What is ultrasound?
When light waves travel straight through a material, they are said to be (this).
What is transmitted?
