Question
True or false
a) Radiation is energy moving in a wave, and like any wave (think sound or water waves) it has wavelength, and
frequency. The longer the wavelength, the longer it takes for the wave of energy to make 1 full up-down-upcycle.
T/F
b) When electromagnetic energy reaches a target, it doesn't transfer some of its energy to it. T/F
c) Lights of wavelength detected by human eyes ~ 450 nm to 650 nm is called invisible light. T/F
d) According to Newton, light propagates as a wave disturbance through the ether - an unseen, elastic medium
pervading all of space. T/F
e) Willibrord Snell discovered the law of reflection. T/F
1) Light represents energy transfer from source to the observer. T/F
g) Geometric optics uses the assumption that light travels in a straight-line path in a non-uniform medium and
