$200 Radio waves The lowest frequency of electromagnetic radiation is

$400 It is both Is electromagnetic radiation a wave or a particle?

$600 Visible and radio Two forms of electromagnetic radiation that penetrate the atmosphere best are:

$800 Gamma rays The part of the electromagnetic spectrum with the shortest wavelength is

$1000 White light is all the colors blended together uniformly What is white light?

$200 Rainbow What is an example of a classic continuous spectrum

$400 violet The visible light with the shortest wavelength is

$600 visible What type of radiation can be observed well from Earth’s surface?

$800 red Which color of electromagnetic radiation has the longest wavelength?

$1000 We don’t for sure. Since lightmust travelo millions of light years, the light we see is millions of years old. How do we know that a star in a distant galaxy is still there?

$200 red Objects we are moving away from appear

$400 Doppler effect When you hear a siren change pitch as it approaches you this is an example of

$600 No shift at all (not blue or red) so it will appear yellow The light from an object moving from right to left will exhibit

$800 An object moving towards us would appear blue

$1000 You can give its radial velocity, either towards or away from us. What information can be inferred about a star from its Doppler shift?

$200 radio What type of wave has the lowest energy

$400 halved If a waves frequency doubles it wavelength is

$600 They both transfer energy. Sound needs a medium, light travels in space How are sound waves and electromagnetic radiation similar? How are they different?

$800 Frequency times the wavelength A wave’s velocity is the product of the

$1000 Sound travels through a material medium, and can not travel through a vacuum Why can you hear a tree fall in the forest but you can’t hear me slam the space capsule door in space?

$200 Photon Individual packet of electromagnetic radiation

$400 An analysis of the way atoms absorb and emit light is Spectroscopy

$600 Kelvin Temperature scale that places zero at the point where all atomic motion ceases.

$800 fourth According to Stefan’s Law: The total energy radiated by a black body is dependent on the _______________power of its temperature

$1000 Does diffraction show wave nature or Particle nature of light? Wave

$200 6 The distance between two crest is 6 cm and the distance from the median to the top of the crest is 4 cm. what is the wavelength?

$400 ¼ or.25 Hz A wave has a period of 4 seconds, what is it’s frequency

$600 It’s temperature The wavelength of an object’s blackbody radiation is dependent on?

$800 Stefan’s If the sun’s temperature were doubled, it would give off 16X’s more energy is an example of what law?

$1000 A few bright emission lines What kind of spectrum would a neon light give us?
