Light is part of the electromagnetic
spectrum and travels in waves

Waves and light have two big similarities1. Both are forms of energy2. Both travel out in all directions
The Wave Model: Different colours of light have different
wavelengths Waves with shorter wavelengths have
higher energy than those with longer wavelengths
![Page 4: Science8 Unit C Lightand Optics Lesson5 The Wave Modelof Light](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55574350d8b42aa8378b4b4c/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The high parts of the wave are called crests
![Page 5: Science8 Unit C Lightand Optics Lesson5 The Wave Modelof Light](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55574350d8b42aa8378b4b4c/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
The low parts of the wave are called troughs
![Page 6: Science8 Unit C Lightand Optics Lesson5 The Wave Modelof Light](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55574350d8b42aa8378b4b4c/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The distance from crest to crest is called wavelength (the distance from one complete
crest and one complete trough)
![Page 7: Science8 Unit C Lightand Optics Lesson5 The Wave Modelof Light](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55574350d8b42aa8378b4b4c/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The height of the crest or the depth of the trough from rest position is called the
amplitude
![Page 8: Science8 Unit C Lightand Optics Lesson5 The Wave Modelof Light](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55574350d8b42aa8378b4b4c/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The Frequency is the rate at which the crest and the trough move up and down. The number of cycles in a period of time - which is usually measured in hertz, or cycles per second.
![Page 9: Science8 Unit C Lightand Optics Lesson5 The Wave Modelof Light](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55574350d8b42aa8378b4b4c/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Different colors on the electromagnetic spectrum have different wavelengths (nanometers) and different frequencies (hertz).

The sun is the most abundant source of direct natural light on the Earth.
The tiny band of visible light that we see is only part of the entire spectrum of light energy we receive.
The light waves, electrical and magnetic fields
vibrate as they radiate to earth.
![Page 19: Science8 Unit C Lightand Optics Lesson5 The Wave Modelof Light](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55574350d8b42aa8378b4b4c/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Radiation is a natural part of our environment.
Natural radiation reaches earth from outer space and continuously radiates from the rocks, soil, and water on the earth.
Background radiation is that which is naturally and inevitably present in our environment. Levels of this can vary greatly.
Radiation is energy traveling through space. Sunshine is one of the most familiar forms of radiation.
Sunshine consists of radiation in a range of wavelengths from long-wave infrared to shorter wavelength ultraviolet.

Radio Detection
and Ranging
![Page 21: Science8 Unit C Lightand Optics Lesson5 The Wave Modelof Light](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55574350d8b42aa8378b4b4c/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Radio waves are around us all the time.
Radio waves have a longer wavelength and a lower frequency than visible light.
Different types of radio waves have different uses.
Signals from radio and television stations, cell phones and even distant stars pass through your body every day.
![Page 22: Science8 Unit C Lightand Optics Lesson5 The Wave Modelof Light](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55574350d8b42aa8378b4b4c/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
MRI devices are used in medicine by sending short bursts of radio waves into the body
A magnetic field helps the radio waves energize atoms and make them line up
When the radio pulses are turned off they help create images of the body tissues
![Page 23: Science8 Unit C Lightand Optics Lesson5 The Wave Modelof Light](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55574350d8b42aa8378b4b4c/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
LANDSAT is a Canadian satellite that records how different parts of the light from the Sun reflect back to the satellite.
It's most important use is for agriculture, monitoring crops for damage by disease, pests and drought.
![Page 24: Science8 Unit C Lightand Optics Lesson5 The Wave Modelof Light](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55574350d8b42aa8378b4b4c/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
RADARSAT is a Canadian telecommunications satellite, which, sweeps the ground below it with radio waves, penetrating fog, haze, clouds and rain.
The reflection back to the satellite gives scientists information they can use in their studies of the Earth.
E.g. Monitoring ice floes, search for minerals, oil and natural gas, monitoring a flood.
![Page 25: Science8 Unit C Lightand Optics Lesson5 The Wave Modelof Light](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55574350d8b42aa8378b4b4c/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Microwaves have the shortest wavelength and the highest frequency of the all the radio waves.
Microwaves have three characteristics that allow them to be used in cooking:
1. they are reflected by metal; 2. they pass through glass, paper,
plastic, and similar materials; 3. they are absorbed by foods.
![Page 26: Science8 Unit C Lightand Optics Lesson5 The Wave Modelof Light](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55574350d8b42aa8378b4b4c/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Microwaves are used to detect speeding cars, to send telephone, satellite and television communications, and to treat muscle soreness.
Industries use microwaves to dry and cure plywood, to cure rubber and resins, to raise bread and doughnuts, and to cook potato chips.
The most common consumer use of microwave energy is in microwave ovens.
Microwave ovens have been regulated since 1971.
![Page 27: Science8 Unit C Lightand Optics Lesson5 The Wave Modelof Light](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55574350d8b42aa8378b4b4c/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Just beyond the violet part of the visible spectrum are wavelengths of about 200 nm., known as ultraviolet (UV) radiation.
This radiation is very energetic. It causes tanning, but it can also do irreparable damage to us. UV rays can damage the cornea of the eye.
More UV radiation is reaching us because the ozone layer in the atmosphere (which protects us from the damaging radiation by absorbing the UV rays) is being thinned.
This thinning of the ozone layer is speeded-up by the use of aerosol sprays and Freon gas, which break up the ozone particles.

![Page 30: Science8 Unit C Lightand Optics Lesson5 The Wave Modelof Light](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55574350d8b42aa8378b4b4c/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Red light has a wavelength of about 700 nm. It could be stretched out to 100 nm and it would become heat (infrared) radiation. It would become invisible to the eyes, but you could sense it with your skin.
Anything that is warmer than its surroundings emit infrared rays.
Practical Applications include: 1. motion sensors 2. burglar alarms 3. heat lamps
![Page 31: Science8 Unit C Lightand Optics Lesson5 The Wave Modelof Light](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55574350d8b42aa8378b4b4c/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
![Page 32: Science8 Unit C Lightand Optics Lesson5 The Wave Modelof Light](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062319/55574350d8b42aa8378b4b4c/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Even shorter wavelengths with higher frequencies are the X-rays.
These waves pass through tissue (skin and muscle) and are absorbed by the bones.
This radiation always stays in the bone and builds up over time.
People who work as technicians taking the x-rays must protect themselves, by leaving the room where the x-ray is taken and also protect the patient's other areas of the body with lead vests to prevent over-exposure.

Gamma rays have the shortest wavelength and the highest frequency of all the waves in the electromagnetic spectrum.
Gamma rays result from nuclear reactions and can kill cells.
This can be useful if the cells being destroyed are harmful - like cancerous cells.
The cancerous growth of cells and tissue can be radiated and is known as radiation therapy.
