electromagnetic radiation | a form of energy that exhibits wavelike behavior as it travels through space. |
wavelenght | the shortest distance between equivialnt points on a continous wave |
frequency | the number of waves that pass a given point per second |
amplituted | the wave hieght from the origin to a crest to a trough |
electromagnetic spectrum | encompasses all forms of electromagnetic radiation, with the only differences in the types of radiation being thier frequencies and wavelenghts. |
quantum | the minimum amount of energy that can be gained of lost by an atom |
planck's constant | has a value of 6.626 |
