Final Jeopardy
Electromagnetic waves arranged in the order of increasing frequency is
called ________
The Electromagnetic Spectrum
Name the 2nd strongest type of electromagnetic wave
X Rays
The diagram to the left shows the electromagnetic spectrum and some of the different types of radiant energy. The component of the spectrum between ultraviolet light and infrared light interacts with the human eye allowing us to see. What is this component of the electromagnetic spectrum
called?
Visible light
Your Text Here
The sun emits all the different types of radiant energy
on the electromagnetic spectrum. The Earth does not
receive the full impact of all this radiation. The ozone
layer in the Earth’s atmosphere absorbs and helps to
block which type of radiant energy?
Ultraviolet light
Scientists have divided the energy in the electromagnetic
spectrum in different categories. Each category is
defined by a different
A. spectrum.
A. ray.
C. wavelength.
D. visibility.
Wavelength
Which graph shows the wave with the greatest amplitude?
A. Shows the wave with the greatest amplitude
Which of the above waves has the longest wavelength?A. Wave #1B. Wave #2C. Wave #3 D. Wave #4
C. Wave # 3
In __________ waves, matter in the medium moves forward and backward in the same
direction the wave travels.
Compressional Waves
__________ is a repeating disturbance that transfers energy
through matter or open space.
Wave
Describe compressional and transverse waves. Explain the
difference between them. You must include the parts of each type of wave in your explanation along with the definition of the wave.
Both types of waves are produced by something vibrating. Compressional waves move back and forth along the same direction the wave is moving. Transverse waves move by causing matter to move at right angles to the
direction the wave is moving.
Sound reaches our ears because sound makes air particles
A. heat up. B. cool down. C. slow down. D. vibrate.
vibrate
Sound is a type of mechanical energy that is transmitted in the form of
A. waves B. lightC. heat
D. electrons
A. waves
Through which medium will sound travel the fastest?
Solid
Sound waves are classified as _________ waves
Compressional Waves
Describe the functions of the 3 parts of the ear.
Outer ear – collects sound waves
Middle ear – amplifies or boosts the sounds we hear.
Inner ear – sends nerve pulses to the brain that we interpret as sound.
A student is investigating how light behaves when it strikes different surfaces. She has a
frosted window glass pane, a clear window glass pane, a mirror, and a piece of cardboard. Which
of these objects will scatter the most light? Explain your answer.
The frosted window glass, because it is translucent
The bending of a wave when it moves from one material to another
is known as ____
Refraction
When light hits an object, the rays can pass through it, bounce off it, or be absorbed by it. Light rays that bounce back are _________
reflected
Why didn’t the light travel in a straight line? Explain what causes this.
The light did not travel in a straight line because of refraction. The light
slowed down as it went from one medium to the next.
Describe the process that occurs when light waves enter your eye and produce a signal in the optic nerve.
Light waves are focused by the lens in your eye on the retina. The light is
then sent as a signal to the brain through optic nerve, which causes
images to be seen.
What happens to the path of a light ray as it passes from air into water at
an angle?
A. Its path widens. B. Its path bends. C. Its path becomes shorter. D. Its path continues in a straight line
The light refracts or bends.
What type of waves do not require matter to carry energy?
Electromagnetic Waves
__________ is the distance from the top of one crest of a transverse wave
to the top of the next crest in that wave.
Wavelength
Which of the following characteristics of a wave determine where it will fall within the wave spectrum (shown above)?
AMPLITUDEHOW IT IS USEDWAVELENGTHWAVE SPEED
WAVELENGTH
Name 4 parts of the eye and describe their functions.
Cornea – protects the eye; it is also where light entering the eye gets refracted first.
Lens – further refracts light that enters the eye and focuses images on the retina
Retina – The retina is composed of tiny light sensitive nerves that transfer the energy of the
light waves to nerve impulses.
Optic nerve – the nerve impulses get sent to the brain through the optic nerve which the
brain interprets as sight.
Final JeopardyName the different types of electromagnetic waves from longest to shortest wavelength. Give an example of the usage of each type of wave.
Final Jeopardy AnswerRadio waves – radio & tv, satellites, microwavesInfrared – used to detect or produce heatVisible light – used to seeU V rays – helps the body produce vitamin B;used to treat skin conditionsX-Rays – used to photograph bones Gamma Rays – used to kill bacteria, radiation therapy
