What is it?
• The electromagnetic spectrum is the complete
spectrum or continuum of light including radio
waves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet light, X-
rays and gamma rays
• An electromagnetic wave consists of electric and
magnetic fields which vibrates thus making
waves.

Waves
• Properties of waves include speed, frequency
and wavelength
• Speed (s), frequency (f) and wavelength (l) are
related in the formula l x f = s
• All light travels at a speed of 3 s 108 m/s in a
vacuum

Wavelength, Frequency and
Energy
• Since all light travels at the same speed, wavelength and frequency have an indirect relationship.
• Light with a short wavelength will have a high frequency and light with a long wavelength will have a low frequency.
• Light with short wavelengths has high energy and long wavelength has low energy

• 1. What is the relationship
between frequency and
wavelength?
• 2. What is meant by ‘spectrum’?
• 3. What does ROY G BIV mean?

– Support your answer.
• 5. Which color is more energetic, red
or yellow?
• 6. Which type of wave travels faster,
gamma or radio?
• 7. Why are microwaves more
dangerous than radio waves?

in a traffic incident that
leaves you stranded on the
side of the road. Which part
of the electromagnetic
spectrum would be of the
most use to you and why?

Answers
• 1. Frequency and wavelength are properties of waves and since speed is constant for em waves, as frequency increases, wavelength decreases.
• 2. Spectrum is a continuum of all electromagnetic waves
• 3, ROY G BIV is the difference colors of the visible light in order of longest wavelength to shortest wavelength.
• 4. X-rays can not be seen, only the waves in the visible light portion are visible.
• 5. Yellow is higher energy than red because it has a shorter wavelength and higher frequency.
• 6. Both travel at the same speed, 300,000 km/s (all em waves travel at the same speed)
• 7. Microwaves have a higher frequency than radio and carry more energy.
