1 Energy that can travel directly through space in the form of waves.
Radiation Energy that can travel directly through space in the form of waves.

2 Wave Parts Wavelength-The distance between the crest of one wave and the crest of the next wave. Amplitude-The height of a wave. Frequency-The number of waves that pass a given point in a certain amount of time.

3 Electromagnetic Spectrum

4 Wavelength vs Frequency
Red has longest wavelength and lowest frequency of visible light. Violet has the shortest wavelength and the highest frequency of visible light.

5 Making it Simple. Ultraviolet has slightly shorter wavelength than violet. Infrared has a greater wavelength than red.
