Laurence Lumot 10 - RUBY: (A) Radio Wave (B) Microwave (C) Infrared

The document discusses electromagnetic waves and their applications. It explains that all EM waves travel at the speed of light and carry energy and momentum. It then provides examples of different types of EM waves, such as radio waves, microwaves, and infrared, and their various uses including long-range communication, wireless networks, remote controls, security systems, cooking, and more. The document also includes an activity where students must identify the specific type of EM wave used in different applications.

10 - RUBY

WORKSHEET NO.3 EM WAVES

All electromagnetic waves travel in a vacuum with the speed of light. These
waves transport energy and momentum from some sources to a receiver.
Heinrich Hertz successfully generated and detected the radio-frequency
electromagnetic waves predicted by Maxwell. Maxwell himself had recognized
the infrared radiation discovered by William Herschel as electromagnetic waves.
It is now known that the forms of electromagnetic waves do exist.
Nowadays, electromagnetic waves like radio waves, microwaves and infrared
have many useful applications.
Activity 1: Fill-in the Table
Knowing the many practical applications of radio waves, microwaves and
infrared, fill-in the table by the type of electromagnetic wave used in each
application is
(a) radio wave; (b) microwave; and (c) infrared. Write only the letter
corresponding to each application.

A 1. long ranger communication

A 2. car central locking systems

B 3. electrical heaters and cookers

A 4. fixed and mobile communication systems

C 5. home security systems

A 6. wireless LAN protocols such as Bluetooth


C 7. radar for aircraft navigation systems

C 8. autofocus camera

A 9. wireless fidelity

A 10. wireless computer networks

A 11. remote controls

C 12. air-traffic control

C 13, global positioning system

B 14. fiber optic cables

C 15, military applications like night vision and target


acquisition

ACTIVITY 2. Identification
1. A type of EM waves used to transmit data through space without the use of a
cable. RADIO WAVES
2. A type of EM waves that converted the electromagnetic waves into the sound
that comes out of the speaker and used in communicating over large
distances, radar, satellite and ship & aircraft navigation. RADIO WAVES
3. A type of EM waves that are used in electronic applications like TV remote
sensors and photography. INFRARED WAVES
4. A type of EM waves that are used for radar signals, and forecast or predict
the weather. MICROWAVES
5. A type of EM waves that are widely used for cosmetic applications such as for
treating skin injuries, smoothing of wrinkles, reducing the occurrence of
dandruff, blackheads, and the like. INFRARED WAVES
