In this lesson, students will learn about the fundamental concepts of waves and the electromagnetic spectrum. They will explore the characteristics of waves, including amplitude, wavelength, and frequency, while examining various examples of waves in nature, including light waves. Students will complete reading assignments from their textbook and engage with multimedia resources like BrainPop. Key reminders include upcoming tests and extra credit opportunities. Daily reflections will encourage critical thinking about manipulated and responding variables in scientific inquiry.

Daily Reflection • Prompt: What is the difference between manipulated and responding variable?
Wave • A wave is a disturbance that transfer ene_____ from place to place. • Who can give me examples of waves? rgy
Is light a wave? • Yes • But why?
Picture of Light Wave • Image of a pulse of light that is 2.5 billionths of a millionth of a second long
Energy • In science, energy is defined as the ability to do wo___. rk
Medium • The material through which a wave tra____ is called a medium • Who can give me examples of medium? vels
Does Light Waves need a medium? • Scientist first thought that Light needed to travel through a medium. So they invented the idea of aether in space. • They look for aether in outer space but they found nothing. • So, Light Waves can travel without a medium even in a Vacuum of outer space.
Crest gh • Hi___ point of a wave is called a crest
Trough ow • L___ point of a wave is called a trough
Amplitude imum • Amplitude is the max______ distance that the particles of medium carrying the wave move away from their rest positions. • Which rope has higher amplitude?
Wavelength • The distance between two corresp______ parts of a wave is its wavelength. • Which rope has longer wavelength? onding
Frequency • Wave frequency is the num_____ of complete waves that pass a given point in a certain amount of time ber
Daily Reflection • Prompt: What 3 facts that you learned from the video.
