5.3.2 Electromagnetic Waves Cornell Doodle Notes Presentation

A disturbance that transmits energy through matter or empty space.

A solid object that moves in a straight line.

A type of energy that cannot travel through space.

A force that pulls objects together.

The distance from one crest of a wave to the next.

A disturbance that transmits energy through matter or empty space.

The height of a wave from the midpoint to the crest.

The speed at which a wave travels.

Electric and magnetic fields

Electric and gravitational fields

Magnetic and thermal fields

Thermal and gravitational fields

Because their electric and magnetic fields are perpendicular to each other

Because they travel in a straight line

Because they require a medium to travel

Because they move in a circular motion

It describes the entire range of light that exists.

It only includes visible light.

It includes both visible and invisible light.

It is made up of only one type of wave.

Infrared radiation

Visible light

Ultraviolet radiation

Microwaves

Radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays

Sound waves, water waves, seismic waves, visible light

Gamma rays, beta particles, alpha particles, visible light

Visible light, sound waves, microwaves, X-rays

Wavelength and frequency are the same for all types.

Different types have different wavelengths and frequencies.

Only wavelength changes, frequency stays the same.

Only frequency changes, wavelength stays the same.

A prism separates white light into different colors based on wavelength.

White light passes through a mirror and forms a rainbow.

White light absorbs all colors and reflects only red.

A lens focuses white light into a single color.
