  13. Question 1 a) gamma rays b) infrared c) sound d) visible light e) radio Which of these is NOT a form of electromagnetic radiation? Sound comes from pressure waves; all others are types of EM radiation of different wavelengths.

  14. Question 8 a) radio & microwaves b) X rays & ultraviolet light c) infrared & gamma rays d) visible light & radio waves e) visible & ultraviolet light What types of electro-magnetic radiation from space reach the surface of Earth?

  15. Question 8 a) radio & microwaves b) X rays & ultraviolet light c) infrared & gamma rays d) visible light & radio waves e) visible & ultraviolet light What types of electro-magnetic radiation from space reach the surface of Earth? Earth’s atmosphere allows radio waves and visible light to reach the ground.
