What is translucent?
The distance from crest to crest or trough to trough
What is wavelength?
An array of black and white squares or pixels set in a grid that stores data for a machine to read, can be read using smartphones

What is increase?
A brick wall
What is opaque?
The distance from the baseline of a wave to the crest or trough is called
What is amplitude?
A special pattern made of black and white lines or shapes that stores information, read by a computer or scanner.
What is a Bar Code?
When our eyes detect light, it allows object to be____________ to us
What is visible?
True or false: Amplitude measures the distance from trough to crest.
What is false?
Frosted glass
What is translucent?
The time it takes two wave peaks to pass a single point
What is frequency?
A series of the numbers 0 and 1 used to create a pattern. Is the basic code for computers.
