EM WAVES
SOUND

COLOR
100
Particles move up and down perpendicular to the direction of the wave energy.
What is a transverse wave?
100
Longest wavelength of EM Waves.
What are radio waves?
100
This is the type of waves sound waves are.
What is compressional or longitudinal?
100
Light is this type of energy.
What is electromagnetic?
100
All the colors of the rainbow blend to form this.
What is white light?
200
Particles move back and forth in the same direction as the wave energy.
What is compressional or longitudinal wave?
200
The shortest wavelength on the EM Spectrum.
What are gamma rays?
200
Sound travels faster through this type of matter.
What is a denser type of matter, or a solid?
200
White light can be separated into different colors by this.
What is a prism?
200
When we see a white shirt we know this.
What is all the frequencies/colors of light are reflected?
300
Waves transfer ___________ not matter.
What is energy?
300
The type of EM waves that are used to see bones in the body.
What are X rays?
300
This is why we see lightning before we hear thunder.
What is light travels faster than sound?
300
The lowest frequency of light is this color.
What is red?
300
When we see someone wearing a green shirt, we know this.
What is all the wavelengths of light are absorbed except green, which is reflected?
400
Waves that need matter to travel through.
What is a mechanical wave?
400
Type of EM waves used in remote controls.
What are Infrared Waves?
400
Compressions in a longitudinal wave correspond to this in a transverse wave.
What is a crest?
400
When we look at a star 100 light years away we are seeing it as it was this long ago.
What is 100 years?
400
The primary colors of light are these.
What are red, blue, and green?
500
Wave that can travel through the vacuum of empty space.
What are electromagnetic waves?
500
The type of EM Waves that have a frequency just above visible light.
What are ultraviolet waves?
500
This is how frequency is affected by the length of a string.
What is the longer the string the lower the frequency?
500
All EM waves, including visible light, travel at this speed in a vacuum.
What is 300,000 km/sec or 186,000 mi/sec?
500
These are the primary pigment colors.
What is Red, yellow, and blue?
