The Electromagnetic Spectrum

​

• The Electromagnetic Spectrum - A range of transverse waves with many uses​

​

• Radios - How they work

​

•  Ultrasound [FREE]  - With a frequency higher than 20,000 Hz these have many uses

​

​

Wave Interaction

​

• Refraction - Waves that change direction when they meet a boundary​

​

•  Lenses  - These refract light and can form an image of an object

​

•  Ray Diagrams  - Convex and concave lenses and drawing the images they make​

​

•  Colour [FREE]  - How filters work and how we see colour from reflected light​
