🗑
An electromagnetic wave   can travel through empty space or matter  
🗑
What is the major sound of energy on earth?   EM waves from the sun.  
🗑
Electromagnetic waves are produced by   the vibration of an electric field and magnetic field together  
🗑
The electromagnetic spectrum is the entire range of   EM waves  
🗑
The entire electromagnetic spectrum is divided into regions by   wavelengths  
🗑
White light is the entire range of   colors of visible light combined  
🗑
Refraction can separate white light into   different colors  
🗑
Whether an objects transparent, translucent, or opaque is determinded by   transmit light  
🗑
Colors of opaque objects are determined by   the color of light they reflect  
🗑
The mixing together of colors of light is called   color addition  
🗑
When pigments are mixed the result is called   color subtraction  
🗑
What are objects that produce visible light?   Luminous

🗑
What two or more light waves overlap and combine   interference occurs  
🗑
Light is most easily transmitted through what type of objects   transparent  
🗑
Whay does the sky appear blue?   because blue light is scattered more then any other color  
🗑
The moon does not produce light of its own. So where does moonlight come from?   Moonlight is sunlight that is reflected off the moon.  
🗑
What are three ways light can interact with matter?   Reflection, absorption, and transmission
