Light and the Electromagnetic Spectrum

What is Light? Light is a wave that we can see, we call this visible light Visible light is only one part of the electromagnetic spectrum

The Electromagnetic Spectrum The electromagnetic spectrum is a continuum of all electromagnetic waves arranged according to frequency and wavelength

Wavelength and Frequency High Frequency Low Frequency

Reflection

Refraction

Absorption

Transmission
