Light and the Electromagnetic Spectrum
Light as a Wave light is a visible form of energy most of the energy that surrounds us is invisible this energy travels in waves made of electric and magnetic fields called “Electromagnetic Radiation”
Light as a Wave Electromagnetic Spectrum = the entire range of visible and invisible energy waves
Properties of Waves wavelength amplitude amplitude wavelength

How Light is Transmitted
Transparent: allows light to pass through Translucent: allows some light to pass through Opaque: allows no light to pass through
