Electromagnetic radiation
- • Carries energy
- • Many “types”
- • Moves
- • Wavelike character
Properties of waves
- Regular rise and fall pattern,
- Wavelength (λ, lambda),
- Frequency (ν, nu),
- Amplitude
Regular rise and fall pattern
– Repeating periodicity
– Peak maxima and peak minima 10

Wavelength symbol
(λ, lambda)
Frequency symbol
(ν, nu)
Wavelength definition
the distance from one peak maximum to the next 10

Frequency definition
the number of peak maxima that are passed per unit time 10

Amplitude definition
the height of the peak maxima and minima from the central axis 10

Electromagnetic waves
- Carry energy
- • Electrical and magnetic components
- • Classified based on wavelength
- • Move at a constant speed (c)
- • No propagating medium needed
Frequency is measured in
hertz
a hertz is equal to a
1/second
