Chapter 22

2. is the very narrow range of wavelengths and frequencies in the electromagnetic wave spectrum that humans can see
4. the passing of light through matter
6. another type of electromagnetic waves produced by the sun
8. have shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies than microwaves
9. the bending of a wave as it passes at an angle from one medium to another
13. these waves carry more information
14. the entire range of electromagnetic waves
15. the transfer of energy through matter or space as electromagnetic waves such as visible light and infrared waves
18. light can act as either particles or waves is known as what
20. the bending of waves around a barrier
21. the term describing matter through which light is easily transmitted
22. a term describing matter that transmits light but also scatters the light as it passes through the matter
23. waves that cover a wide range of waves in the EM spectrum
24. is he falling of a beam of light on a surface

1. have a shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies than radio waves
3. the transfer of energy carried by light waves to particles of matter
5. a wave interaction that occurs when two or more waves overlap
7. a wave that can travel through space or matter and consist of changing electric and magnetic fields
10. a term describing matter that does not transmit any light
11. have some of the shortest wavelengths and highest frequencies of all EM waves
12. he bouncing back of a wave after it strikes a barrier or an object
16. radio wavesthat can travel farther than FM waves
17. a tiny packet of light energy
19. the angle incidence is equal to the angle of reflection
