Science Flashcards
Are transvere oscillating waves composed of electic and magnetic fields
Em waves
Which shows the different types of Em waves
Em spectrum
Are the region in the Em spectrum with the longest wavelength and the lowest frequencies Em spectrum
Radio waves
Are found between microwaves andn visible light
Infrared waves
The onky part of the Em spectrum that can be seen by the unaided eye is the?
Visibke light
Which help in identifying the structure
Spectral signatures
Were first observes and documented by Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen
X-ray
Are found at the end of the Em Spectrum
Gamma rays
Happens when you get high amountsnof radiation exposure over a very short period of time
Acute exposure
This occurs when a person is exposed to a small amount of radiation over a long perios of time
Chronic exposure
Is a property of light that occurs when light bounces back as it hits a surface
Reflection
When the light strikes a smooth surface
Regular reflection
When the incident light rays strike a rouch surface
Diffused reflection
Are relfectives surface made up kf glass
Mirrors
Are those formes behind the mirror
