Prepare for your upcoming quiz with this comprehensive study guide focusing on key concepts in radiation and light. Topics include the properties of gamma rays, radio waves, visible light, infrared and ultraviolet radiation, and x-rays. You'll also learn to calculate wave frequency in Hertz, understand wave model diagrams, and recognize the colors of the visible spectrum (ROY.G.BIV). Additionally, explore complementary colors, the roles of rods and cones in vision, and the significance of prisms. Ensure you grasp these concepts to excel in your assessment.

What you need to study to be successful for this next quiz: • Radiation and gamma rays, radio waves, visible light, infrared radiation, ultraviolet radiation, and x-rays • Wavelengths and amplitude, frequency, hertz • Calculate the frequency of the wave in cycles per second (Hz) • Know how to read the wave model diagrams on pg. 238-239 • The wavelength’s of yellow, blue , red and green lights • ROY G BIV • Complementarycolour. Colours resulting from the mixture of certain colours. • Rods and cones • Prisms, fig. 3.47B –what does this tell you about white light?
Con’t • Which radiation? • Has the shortest wavelength? • Can tan skin? • Ozone layer offers protection from this type. • Does skin sense as warmth? • Retina of eye detects? • Longest wavelength? • Given off in nuclear reactions? • Passes through skin, not bone?
