1 Frequency: the number of complete waves that pass a point in a given time. It has the symbol f. 1) SI Units: Hertz (Hz) Wavelength: The length from the one crest of a wave to the next.
2 I. Electromagnetic Spectrum A. Electromagnetic Spectrum wide range of electromagnetic waves with different wavelengths and frequencies B. Divided into different parts C. electromagnetic waves have different names but all travel at the same speed in empty space, the speed of light D. frequency increases as wavelength decreases E. most waves are not visible 1. light waves are visible F. all objects send out electromagnetic waves
3 Electromagnetic Spectrum Notes I.) Electromagnetic Waves A) What are EM Waves? 1) How are they produced? a) Electric and magnetic fields are constantly changing b) EM waves are produced when electric charges vibrate or accelerate
4 2) How they travel a) EM waves can travel through a vacuum (empty space) as well as through matter B) Speed of EM waves 1) Speed of light in a vacuum, c=3.00x10 8 m/s
5 II.) Electromagnetic Spectrum A) The Waves of the Spectrum 1) EM spectrum: all of the frequencies or wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation 2) The EM spectrum includes radio waves, microwaves infrared rays, visible light, UV rays, X- rays, and gamma rays.
6
7 B) Radio Waves -Longest wavelength -Lowest Frequency 1) Radio waves are used in radio & TV technologies, as well as in radar. a) Radio 1) Amplitude modulation (AM) 2) Frequency modulation (FM) b) Radar 1) Send out short bursts of radio waves that bounce off objects & return to receiver
8 C) Microwaves -Shorter wavelength than radio waves -Higher frequency than radio, but lower than infrared 1) Only penetrate food at the surface
9 D) Infrared Waves -Shorter wavelength than microwaves -Higher frequency than microwaves, but lower than red light 1) Infrared rays are used as a source of heat & to discover areas of heat difference 2) You can t see infrared radiation, but your skin feels its warmth
10 E) Visible Light -Each wavelength corresponds to a specific frequency ** Color determined by frequency
11 F) UV Rays -Shorter wavelength and higher frequency than violet light 1) UV rays have applications in health and medicine, and in agriculture. a) Helps skin produce Vit. D, can cause sunburn, cancer, and used to kill microorganisms
12 G) X-Rays -Shorter wavelength and higher frequency than UV rays 1) X-rays are used in medicine, industry, and transportation to make pictures of the inside of solid objects. a) X-rays are absorbed by solid objects (teeth, bones) & so solid objects appear white
13 H) Gamma Rays -Shortest wavelength -Highest frequency 1) Gamma rays are used in the medical field to kill cancer cells and to make pictures of the brain & in industrial situations as an inspection tool.
14 Absorption of Light 1. Atoms can also absorb light shined on them. 2. Any light not absorbed by the atoms in an object is scattered (reflected) back. 3. If only some colors are absorbed, the rest are scattered back. 4. We see the colors scattered back. 5. White objects don t absorb any light, all colors reflected. 6. Black objects absorb most colors, little light reflected. 7. Transparent objects let most light pass through without being absorbed or scattered.
15 Atomic Emission Spectra 1. Each element emits (gives off) its own, individual set of colors when energized. 2. This is called its atomic emission spectrum. 3. The colors show up as a series of lines when viewed through a prism. 4. Like a fingerprint for that element. 5. Used in astronomy to determine the composition of stars. 6. Around 60 elements have been identified in our sun.
16 The Dual Nature of Light The dual nature of light refers to the fact that in some experiments light displays the properties of a wave, while in others it displays properties of a particle.
17 The Photoelectric Effect The Photoelectric Effect refers to the phenomena of electrons being emitted from a metal (usually) when struck by light. This is essential to how Photovoltaic Solar Panels function.
