Q

State em spectrum in order of increasing frequency

A

Radio microwave infrared,visible uv x Ray gamma

17
Q

Example of medical use through gamma rays

A

Cancer treatment and sterialization of medical equipment

18
Q

What happens to waves when it refracts

A

Wavelength and frequencies change

19
Q

Differences between myopia and hyperopia

A

Myopia short sighted can see stuff close to the other one is long sighted can see stuff far away from them

20
Q

Wavelength of high and low pitch

A

High has long frequencies
Low has short frequencies

21
Q

Two uses of em spectrum

A

X rays see internal structures
Microwaves for cooking

22
Q

Amplitude

A

The height from rest to the topos wave

23
Q

Wavelength

A

Length wave from one point of the wave to the same point of the other wave

24
Q

50 hz meaning

A

50 vibrations per sec

25
Longitudinal
Vibration is parallel to energy transfer
26
Transverse
Vibration Perpendicular to energy transfer
27
Equation for frequency wavelength and wave speed
v = f λ .
28
I wouldn't say that the ways are in the Water moving not the water that
When the rubber duck thing is moving in the water is up and down not side to side
29
What's an ultrasound
Medical imaging shattering of kidney stones
30
What is the wave equation
Wave speed = frequency x wavelength
31
How do you sound travel how they pass through the ear
Longitudinal wave through. The Pinner then eardrum then ossicles then cohlea auditory nerve then brain
32
Visible spectrum in order of the smallest frequency
Violet indigo blue green yellow orange and red
33
Transparent
Light can pass through freely
34
Translucent
Some light can pass through
35
Opaque
Lights can't pass through
