________14. The time it takes for a particle to travel one wavelength

________15. It has the shortest wavelength and the highest frequency.

C. Objective: Determine whether the statement is correct or incorrect

Direction: Write T if the statement is True and F if the statement is False.

________1. Waves are caused by energy.

________2. The direction of the motion determines the type of wave.

________3. Electromagnetic waves require a medium.

________4. An example of mechanical waves are UV Rays and Light Rays.

________5. The velocity of the wave depends on wave type and medium.

________6. In refraction, when the wave is slower the light bends away from the normal.

________7. Refraction depends on its wavelength.

________8. Shorter wavelengths, The visible light (blue) bend less.

________9. Longer wavelengths, The visible light (red) bend more.

________10.Diffraction is same as refraction.
