Question
Answer
a form of energy that exhibits wavelike behavior as it travels through space   Electromagnetic Radiation  
🗑
the shortest distance btw equivalent points on a continuous wave   Wavelength  
🗑
a number of waves that pass a given point per second   Frequency  
🗑
the wave's height from the origin to the crest, or from the origin to the trough   Amplitude  
🗑
encompasses all forms of elecrtomagnetic radiation, with only a few differences in the types of radiation being their frenquencies and wavelengths   Electromagnetic Spectrum  
🗑
is the minimum amount of energy that can be gained or lost by an atom   Quantum

🗑
levels of pricipal energy levels   Energy sublevels  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
