What these are questions

Note: You do not need to answer questions that start with "be able to", "understand", "be familiar with".

Why do people wear light-colored clothing in summer and dark-colored clothing in winter?
What is the difference between the waves of an AM radio station and that of a FM radio station?
What is a wave?
Identify three characteristics that can be used to describe a wave.
How is a transverse wave different from a longitudinal wave?
What is the electromagnetic spectrum? Of what type of waves does it consist?
What happens when two different waves overlap? *be able to draw these patterns
What is the audible range for sound waves?
How is music related to waves?
How do bats use waves?
What is ROYGBIV?
Which have longer wavelengths, reds or blues?
What is the speed of light?
What are some uses of gamma rays?
What are the longest waves of the electromagnetic spectrum? How large are their wavelengths?
Are organisms capable of magnetic navigation?
The Earth's magnetic field is like a dipole magnet.
Can a magnet in half create a positive piece and a negative piece?
What is the difference between series and parallel circuits?
What property of an electrical current is measured by ohms?
What charge does an excess of electrons produce? Excess protons?
Know how to calculate resistance, current, and voltage. V=IR
A flashlight uses two 1.5-volt batteries to light a 5-amp bulb. What is the resistance of the circuit?
If voltage is coming from a 12V battery, in a series circuit with three bulbs, how many volts is each bulb receiving? What about in a parallel circuit of 3 bulbs?
What is a resistor?
What is a conductor?
What types of materials make good resistors?
What types of materials make good conductors?
Be familiar with Ohm's law and how to calculate using it. Ohm's Law:V = R*I; R = V/I; I = V/R

Where V = voltage; R = resistance, I = Current

Be able to calculate wavelength, velocity, frequency, and period (time). Velocity of a wave = frequency x wavelength; wavelength = velocity/frequency; frequency = 1/period; period = 1/frequency.
Understand Einstein's general and special relativity and be able to provide an example.
