What is EMR?
Think about how energy can move without physical contact.
Define wavelength.
It relates to the color you see!
What is the relationship between wavelength and frequency in EMR?
Recall our discussion on the properties of EMR.
True or False: Gamma rays are part of the low-energy end of the EM spectrum.
Think about where gamma rays are situated in the spectrum.
Given the equation c = λ × f, if a wavelength is 500 nm, calculate the frequency.
Keep in mind to convert units properly!
Discuss how the properties of EMR can impact remote sensing applications in terms of atmospheric interactions.
Consider how clouds and gases might impact the transmission of wavelengths.
