Electromagnetic Waves Although you might not know it you’re constantly surrounded by thousands of electromagnetic waves every day. Sunlight and x-rays are only two types of electromagnetic waves‚ other types are: radio wave‚ infrared rays‚ ultra-violet rays and gamma rays Nature of an electromagnetic wave Electric and magnetic fields are not made up of matter. An electromagnetic wave consists of an electric and magnetic field and doesn’t need a medium to exist. They are the regions through

Unit 3 assignment 1 SC1130 The diagram of the electromagnetic spectrum in figure 6-18‚ shows various properties across the range of frequencies and wavelength. Electromagnetic spectrum the figures at the bottom of the diagram represents the approximate scale of wavelengths. It starts from the smallest to the largest. Which is the Atomic nucleus‚ atom‚ virus‚ bacteria‚ pinhead‚ fingernail‚ humans‚ skyscrapers‚ and mount Everest. The figure also shows the wavelength and the frequency scale. The

The electromagnetic spectrum The electromagnetic (EM) spectrum is just a name that scientists give a bunch of types of radiation when they want to talk about them as a group. Radiation is energy that travels and spreads out as it goes‚ visible that comes from a lamp in your house and radio waves that come from a radio station are two types of electromagnetic radiation. Other examples of EM radiation are microwaves‚ infrared and ultraviolet light‚ X-rays and gamma-rays. Hotter‚ more energetic

Science Essay: We use the electromagnetic spectrum every day it’s the microwave you use to heat your food and the cell phones you use to text! Those are part of the Electromagnetic Spectrum. The light that our eyes can see is also part of the electromagnetic spectrum. This visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum consists of the colors that we see in a rainbow - from reds and oranges‚ through blues and purples!! The electromagnetic spectrum has 7 parts to it‚ radio waves‚ microwaves‚ infrared

Electromagnetic waves are radiated energy of all different strengths. They’re different from sound waves and water waves because they have the ability to travel through empty space. A vacuum. These are the only types of waves that do not need any type of medium because of photons. Photons are tiny particles that don’t get traveled through‚ but make up electromagnetic waves. Photons travel with the wave at about 300‚000 k/s. also known as the speed of light. The more energy the photons have‚ the brighter

3‚ 2012 James Clerk Maxwell discovered the electromagnetic spectrum in 1862. The electromagnetic spectrum is a map of all the types of light that can be identified. It classifies different types of light by wavelength to show how much energy the wave has. The more energy the wave has the shorter the wavelength and the less energy a waves has the longer the wavelength. Not all light is in the visible spectrum. There are many kinds of electromagnetic waves that you can’t see. When you turn on your

Bautista‚ Harris W. Guinomla‚ Jose Paulo Piloton and Khevin Anne A. Francisco‚ EECE‚ MSU-IIT Abstract –This project involves discovering how wireless connections occur in the atmosphere using a beam of laser. The project‚ laser communicator‚ uses electromagnetic waves to transfer information without direct connection between the input and output devices. This project will also investigate how the sound waves are transmitted as electrical and light signals through a transistor radio‚ a transformer‚ a laser

INTRODUCTION: The electromagnetic spectrum is the range of all possible frequencies of electromagnetic radiation. Radiation can be said to be energy that travels and spread as it goes. The "electromagnetic spectrum" of an object has a different meaning‚ and is instead the characteristic distribution of electromagnetic radiation emitted or absorbed by that particular object. We tend to witness different radiations of the electromagnetic spectrum without knowing‚ example is the visible light that

INTRODUCTION Radiation‚ flow of atomic and subatomic particles and of waves‚ such as those that characterize heat rays‚ light rays‚ and X rays. All matter is constantly bombarded with radiation of both types from cosmic and terrestrial sources. This article delineates the properties and behaviour of radiation and the matter with which it interacts and describes how energy is transferred from radiation to its surroundings. Considerable attention is devoted to the consequences of such an energy

Induction Induction is the process for introducing a new employee to their work environment. It extends from the moment the prospective employee reads the advertisement for the position and fuses with their training and development as a part of the organisation. Why do we need an induction procedure? A proper induction will give both the employees and the organisation the following benefits: (1) It improves the motivation of new employees by helping them (2) quickly assimilate the
