Electromagnetic Wave Properties
Electromagnetic waves do not need a medium to propagate. They can travel in a vacuum.
The speed of all electromagnetic radiation in a vacuum is a constant.
c = 3 X 108 m/s.

Electromagnetic Spectrum
Draw out the spectrum noting trends in frequency, wavelength, wave speed and energy.There is a easy mnemonic to help you remember the order of EM radiation….
Red Martians Invade Venus Using X-ray GunsRadio, Microwave, Infrared, Visible, Ultraviolet, X-ray, Gamma
Wavelength…Starts Long and gets shorter towards Gamma
Frequency……Starts Low and gets higher towards Gamma
Speed is the same for all EM waves
Energy…Starts low and gets higher towards Gamma

Visible Light
ColorsAddition vs. Subtraction of Color•The perceived color of an object is due to two processes, addition and subtraction of colors.
•The addition of color is the projection of various intensities of the primary colors of light to produce the desired color.
•The subtraction of color is the absorption of specific colors by pigments. The colors that remain produce the desired color. The reflection of white light off a colored object is an example of color subtraction.

Reflection
Definition of Reflection
The turning back of a wave.
Law of ReflectionAngle of Incidence = Angle of Reflection.
i = r
or ‘theta’ is a symbol used to denote a variable angle.
(It is like ‘x’ in algebra.)

Refraction
Bending Rules• Light traveling from a less dense to more dense medium slows down. •The ray bends towards the normal,• ni < nr.• Light traveling from a more dense to less dense medium speeds up.•The ray bends away from the normal, •nr < ni.

Total Internal Reflection
Definition of Total Internal Reflection
The complete reflection of light at the boundary of two transparent media. The effect occurs when the angle of incidence exceeds the critical angle for a light ray going from a more dense medium to a less dense medium.
Definition of Critical Angle
The minimum angle of incidence for which total internal reflection occurs. This occurs when the angle of refraction becomes 900.
