8Electromagnetic Spectrum/Radiation
- Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves
produced by the motion of electrically charged
particles. - They DO NOT need a medium!
- Can travel though empty space at 300,000km/s or
186,000 miles/sec - Radiation The transfer of energy by
electromagnetic waves. - Abbreviations
- EMS Electromagnetic Spectrum
- EMR Electromagnetic Radiation

15Electromagnetic SpectrumElectromagnetic waves
that are classified in ascending order of energy
(frequency) they propagate at the speed of light
(300,000 km/s).
- visible light
- Electromagnetic radiation that is perceived by
the human eye and ranges from red to violet. - gamma rays
- Electromagnetic waves of very high frequency that
are emitted by radioactive bodies they are the
most radiant and harmful rays and are used
especially in treating cancer. - X-rays
- Electromagnetic waves used especially in
radiology frequent exposure can be harmful. - ultraviolet radiation
- Electromagnetic waves used especially to tan skin
and in microscopy, medicine and lighting
(fluorescent tubes). - infrared radiation
- Electromagnetic waves emitted by warm objects
their many uses include heating, medicine, aerial
photography and weaponry. - microwaves
- Short electromagnetic waves their many
applications include radar detection and
microwave ovens. - radio waves
- Very long electromagnetic waves (about 1 meter)
having low frequency they are used to transmit
information (television, radio)

18- Radio Yes, this is the same kind of energy that
radio stations emit into the air for your boom
box to capture and turn into your favorite
Mozart, Madonna, or Justin Timberlake tunes. But
radio waves are also emitted by other things ...
such as stars and gases in space. You may not be
able to dance to what these objects emit, but you
can use it to learn what they are made of. - Microwaves They will cook your popcorn in just a
few minutes! Microwaves in space are used by
astronomers to learn about the structure of
nearby galaxies, and our own Milky Way! - Infrared Our skin emits infrared light, which is
why we can be seen in the dark by someone using
night vision goggles. In space, IR light maps the
dust between stars. - Visible Yes, this is the part that our eyes see.
Visible radiation is emitted by everything from
fireflies to light bulbs to stars ... also by
fast-moving particles hitting other particles. - Ultraviolet We know that the Sun is a source of
ultraviolet (or UV) radiation, because it is the
UV rays that cause our skin to burn! Stars and
other "hot" objects in space emit UV radiation. - X-rays Your doctor uses them to look at your
bones and your dentist to look at your teeth. Hot
gases in the Universe also emit X-rays . - Gamma-rays Radioactive materials (some natural
and others made by man in things like nuclear
power plants) can emit gamma-rays. Big particle
accelerators that scientists use to help them
understand what matter is made of can sometimes
generate gamma-rays. But the biggest gamma-ray
generator of all is the Universe! It makes gamma
radiation in all kinds of ways.

20Radio Waves
- All around us
- Long wavelengths and low frequencies.
- Radio, TV, cellular phones, cordless phones, etc.
21Microwaves
- Radio waves with the highest frequency and
energy. - Communications and microwave ovens!
22Infrared Radiation
- Slightly lower frequency than visible light.
- Felt as heat
- Infrared lamps keep your french fries warm!
- Used in Remote Controls
23IR does not penetrate walls and so does not
interfere with other devices in adjoining rooms.
Infrared is the most common way for remote
controls to command appliances.
24Visible Radiation
- Or light, is the only part of the electromagnetic
spectrum you can see! - Each different wavelength of light has a
different color!!
25(No Transcript)
26Ultraviolet Radiation
- Higher frequency than visible light.
- Greater penetrating power!
- Helps skin cells produce vitamin D, which is
needed for healthy bones and teeth! - Sterilize surgical instruments
- Over exposure kills healthy cells!!!
- Sagging, dry skin, skin cancer!
- Sunblock and sunglasses!!!
27X Rays
- X rays have a shorter wavelength and a higher
frequency than ultraviolet radiation. - Higher energy allows X rays to travel through
some types of matter such as your skin and
muscles.
28Gamma Rays
- Have the highest frequency and are the most
penetrating of electromagnetic waves! - They are emitted from the nuclei of radioactive
atoms. - Earth receives some from space.
- Can be used to kill cancer cells.

30Types of Reflection
- Reflected light is when light is not completely
absorbed by an object. - The type of surface affects the type of
reflection. - Regular/Specular reflection- smooth surface,
forms a clear image. (flat mirror) - Diffuse reflection- rough surface, forms a fuzzy
image.

36Diffraction
- Diffraction Bending and spreading of waves
usually around an obstacle

38Mirrors
Convex mirrors- a mirror with a surface that
curves outward Images appear smaller farther
away objects are closer than they appear
Concave mirrors- mirror with a surface curved
inward. Form either virtual images or real
images depending on the position of the object
39What do cameras, telescopes, microscopes, and
movie projectors have in common?
- They all use lenses to create images!
40Lens
- A transparent object (see through) that refracts
(bends) light waves such that they converge or
diverge to create an image - Lenses are classified by shape
- There are 2 types
- Convex
- Concave
41Concave Lens
- Lens is thinner in the middle than at the edges
- Does not produce a real image
- Produces a Virtual Image
- Smaller than objects
- Uses Telescopes, Microscopes, and Nearsighted
Eyeglasses
42Convex Lens
- Lens is thicker in the middle than at the edges
- Produces a real image
- Light Rays Refract Toward Each Other
- A real image is larger than the object
- Side Mirror on car Objects appear smaller than
they actually are - Uses Magnifying Lenses, Cameras, and Farsighted
Eyeglasses

45Near Sighted
- Can see near but not far because light is
focused in front of the Retina - Concave Lens (Curves Inward Thin in Middle)
- Light Diverges or Spreads out back towards the
Retina
46Far Sighted
- Can see far but not near because light is
focused behind the Retina - Convex Lens (Curves Outward Thick in Middle)
- Light Converges or Comes Together more in front
of Retina
47Convex vs. Concave
- Convex Mirror Curved Outward Like the Back of a
Spoon! - Concave Mirror Curved Inward Like the Inside of
a Spoon! - Convex Lenses Curve Outward, Thick in the
Middle, used for Farsightedness! - Concave Lenses Curve Inward, Thin in the
Middle, used for Nearsightedness! (Near a
Cave!) - http//mail.colonial.net/hkaiter/electromagspectr
