Presentation transcript:

This screen will disappear in 3 minutes. Seconds Remaining. Draw a diagram of a wave. Label the parts.

Define: Wavelength, Frequency, Amplitude Seconds Left:

1.Wavelength – 1.In transverse waves – distance between two crests or troughs 2.In longitudinal waves – distance between two compressions or rarefactions 2.Frequency – the number of waves that pass a point in one second 1.Long wavelengths have low frequencies 2.Short wavelengths have high frequencies 3.Amplitude (wave height) – the distance from the middle of a transverse wave to the crest or trough

What is an electromagnetic wave? Seconds Left:

A transverse wave that can travel through space or matter.

Describe visible light Seconds Left:

Light you can see; a small part of the electromagnetic spectrum
