| A | B |
|---|
| frequency | the number of electromagnetic waves traveling past a fixed point in a specific unit of time (usually one second) |
| wave crest | the top of an electromagnetic wave |
| wavelength | the distance between the crest of one wave and the crest of the next wave |
| Faster | The shorter the wave length the _______________ the frequency |
| White light | Normal full spectrum light; combination of all colors when reflected together |
| Sound wave | Which wave is not part of the electromagnetic spectrum? |
| Solids | In which type of medium does sound travel the fastest? |
| Gas | In which type of medium does sound travel the slowest? |
| FALSE | Sound waves can travel in a Vacuum |
| TRUE | Light waves do not require a medium? |
| straight Line | What pattern does light travel in? |
| speed of light | Which is faster the speed of sound or the speed of light? |
| slows down | What happens to the speed of light when it travels from the air (gas) into the ocean (water)? |
| Radio,Micro,Infrared,Visible, UltraViolet, Xray, Gamma | What is the correct order of the EM Spectrum? |
| short wavelength | Which wavelength produces a faster frequency |
| wave trough | Lowest point of a wave |
| wave period | the time required for corresponding points on consecutive waves to pass a given point |
| Amplitude | For a wave or vibration, the maximum displacement on either side of the equilibrium (midpoint) position. Height of a wave. |
