What is light
This is the only electromagnetic wave that can be seen.
What is visible light.
This electromagnetic wave has the least amount of energy.
what is radio
In this interaction of light waves light bounces off of objects.
What is reflection.
It's hard to tell exactly where a fish is in water because of ____________.
refraction
Light passes through this type of matter perfectly.
What is transparent matter.
An electromagnetic wave consists of these two fields.
What are electric and magnetic fields.
These electromagnetic wave has the shortest wavelength and highest energy.
what is gamma waves
In this interaction of a light wave light bends, causing rainbows and optical illusions such as the ruler with water.
What is refraction.
We see ourselves in mirrors because of ___________.
what is light
Some light transmits through __________ matter, but in ____________ matter no light can be transmitted.
What is transparent or translucent and opaque.
An electromagnetic waves are ____________ waves.
transverse
This electromagnetic wave gives us sun burn.
ultraviolet rays
We can not see our reflection is rough objects because the light doesn't reflect at one angle. Instead the light _____________.
What is scatters.
Why does a spoon look bent in water?
refraction
In a strawberry this wavelength is reflected.
What is red.
The transfer of energy as electromagnetic waves.
What is radiation.
These types of electromagnetic rays are slightly dangerous. These waves produce heat.
What are infrared waves.
When light energy gets soaked into an object.
absorption.
To show how light can be reflected we built this in class.
What is a periscope.
For the shade of black: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet is ____________.
What is absorbed.
Visible light takes this amount of time to reach the Earth.
What is 8.3 minutes.
Ultraviolet rays gives us this one good side effect.
Ultraviolet rays gives us this one good side effect.
____________ objects reflect light.
opaque
Light refracts as it passes through our atmosphere. This wavelength is the first to scatter because it has the most energy.
What is the blue wavelength of light.
What happens to the wavelengths of light when we see a blue tranlucent object?
All colors are absorbed and blue is transmitted.
