TEST II

Directions: Read each statement carefully. On the space provided, write ELECTRIC if the statement is
TRUE and MAGNETIC if the statement is FALSE.

_________________ 1. Scattering is the transfer of energy carried by the light waves to the particles of matter.
_________________ 2. Refraction is the bending of light as it passes from one medium to another.
_________________ 3. Total internal reflection is an angle of incidence produces an angle of refraction that is
equal to 90 degree in the medium.
_________________ 4. Red light was observe to be bent the least, while violet to be bent the most.
_________________ 5. Light waves also bounds of from a reflecting surface.
_________________ 6. There are two kinds of reflection. this are total internal refraction and specular
reflection.
_________________ 7. The constant value of wave speed is 3.0 X 10ˆ8.
_________________ 8. An echo is a refracted sound wave
_________________ 9. Light is an electromagnetic radiation that has properties of waves and particles.
_________________ 10. Samuel Morse was also doing his own version of the same technology on the other
side of the Atlantic Ocean
_________________ 11. Infrared waves are sometimes called heat or thermal radiation.
_________________ 12. Infrared radiation is also used in electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy.
_________________ 13. Specular reflection offers when reflective surface is very smooth such as a mirror or a
surface of calm water.
_________________ 14. Example of infrared are sunlight, fire or radiator.
_________________ 15. The conventional telephone was invented by Alexander Graham Bell
