Compressional Waves : another term for longitudinal waves.
Electromagnetic Spectrum : the full range of frequencies, from radio waves to gamma rays, that characterizes light
Electromagnetic Waves : waves consisting of oscillating electric and magnetic fields that move at the speed of light through space
Frequency : a property of a wave that describes how many wave patterns or cycles pass by in a period of time
Gamma Rays : the highest energy, shortest wavelength electromagnetic radiations
Hertz : the derived SI unit of frequency, 1 cycle per second
Infrared Waves : electromagnetic radiation at wavelengths longer than the red end of visible light and shorter than microwaves
Longitudinal Waves : waves such as sound waves that require a medium to transfer energy
Microwaves : electromagnetic radiation which has longer wavelength than visible light, but shorter than radio waves.
photon : a tiny particle or bundle of radiant energy
Radio Waves : electromagnetic radiation which has the lowest frequency, the longest wavelength, and is produced by charged particles moving back and forth
Speed Of Light : 299,792,458 meters per second
