Annie's Module 15 Flashcards
Define Electromagnetic wave. π€·πΌββοΈ
A transverse wave composed of oscillating field and a magnetic field that oscillates perpendicular to the electrical field ππΌββοΈ
Light travels in waves only according to the wave theory of Huygens. Is this True or false?π€
False. Light travels in little packages of waves. The wave theory is not correct alone nor is the particle theory alone. ππΌββοΈ
What is The Law of Reflectionπ€·πΌββοΈ
The Law of Reflection is: the angle of reflection equals the angle of incidence. ππΌββοΈ
What is Huygens theory of light? π€
Huygens considered light to be a wave. He said light was a wave instead of a particle. His theory is called the wave theory.ππΌββοΈ
What was Newtonβs theory of light?π€
After studying light Newton concluded that a beam of light behaved the same as a stream of partials witch moved in the same direction. Newtonβs theory is known as the particle theory.ππΌββοΈ
What is the order of wavelengths for the colors of the rainbow? π€·πΌββοΈ
The longest wavelength is red than orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and lastly violet. ππΌββοΈ
Lightβs speed dose what?π€·πΌββοΈ
Lightβs speed stays constant though all substances.ππΌββοΈ
To produce light you only need electricity. True or false?π€
False. You need electricity and magnetism because they work together to produce light.ππΌββοΈ
