1 Electromagnetic Waves
What does energy have to do with waves?

2 What does energy have to do with the wave?
Electromagnetic wave: A transverse wave that consists of changing electric and magnetic fields.

3 Electromagnetic wave:

4 Electromagnetic wave fun facts:
The energy transferred by this type of wave is electromagnetic radiation.

5 Electromagnetic wave fun facts:
The energy transferred by this type of wave is electromagnetic radiation. They travel at about 300,000,000 meters per second in a vacuum.

6 Electromagnetic wave fun facts:
The energy transferred by this type of wave is electromagnetic radiation. They travel at about 300,000,000 meters per second in a vacuum. Speed = wavelength X frequency

7 Electromagnetic wave fun facts:
The energy transferred by this type of wave is electromagnetic radiation. They travel at about 300,000,000 meters per second in a vacuum. Speed = wavelength X frequency Wavelength decreases frequency increases.

8 Electromagnetic wave fun facts:
The energy transferred by this type of wave is electromagnetic radiation. They travel at about 300,000,000 meters per second in a vacuum. Speed = wavelength X frequency Wavelength decreases frequency increases. Wavelength increases frequency decreases.

9 Electromagnetic wave parts from high energy to low energy:
Gamma rays:

10 Electromagnetic wave parts from high energy to low energy:
Gamma rays: Used to kill cancer cells (radiation therapy). Also used for precise surgeries (very small cuts).

11 Electromagnetic wave parts from high energy to low energy:
Gamma rays: Used to kill cancer cells (radiation therapy). Also used for precise surgeries (very small cuts). X-rays:

12 Electromagnetic wave parts from high energy to low energy:
Gamma rays: Used to kill cancer cells (radiation therapy). Also used for precise surgeries (very small cuts). X-rays: Used to take “pictures” of bones.

13 Electromagnetic wave parts from high energy to low energy:
Gamma rays: Used to kill cancer cells (radiation therapy). Also used for precise surgeries (very small cuts). X-rays: Used to take “pictures” of bones. Ultraviolet:

14 Electromagnetic wave parts from high energy to low energy:
Gamma rays: Used to kill cancer cells (radiation therapy). Also used for precise surgeries (very small cuts). X-rays: Used to take “pictures” of bones. Ultraviolet: Low exposure helps your body produce Vitamin D. High exposure can cause sunburn or skin cancer.
