Electromagnetism
- Visible light is a type of electromagnetic energy.
- The colors are broken down into several different colors (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet).
- Looking through the spectra-scope light is separated:
Infrared
- Light isn't always made of color. Sometimes it is made of infra-red waves.
- These waves are interpreted as heat but aren't heat.
Ultra-Violet
- Ultra-Violet radiation is more 'deadly' and dangerous.
- This is because more waves hit you.
Radio Waves
- These are waves that transfer picture and sound
- NOT HARMFUL
X-Ray
- These are dangerous if exposed to long
- Used to see bones in your body
Gamma Radiation
- This will break down your cells
- Will kill you eventually
