  1. Electromagnetic SpectrumFoldable Instructions

  2. You will need 4 sheets of copy paper • Layer your paper as such: Your paper should be about an inch apart – maybe an inch and a quarter.

  3. FOLD • Now it is time to fold your paper so that you have 8 slots for your foldable. It should look something like this: You will staple 3 times along the bottom of the foldable!

  4. Time to Add material to your foldable! ON THE FLAPS: ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVES CHARACTERISTICS NEXT FLAP: RADIO WAVES NEXT FLAP: MICRO WAVES NEXT FLAP: INFRARED WAVES NEXT FLAP: LIGHT WAVES (VISIBLE LIGHT) NEXT FLAP: ULTRAVIOLET WAVES (LIGHT) NEXT FLAP: X-RAYS NEXT FLAP: GAMMA RAYS

  5. ADD GRAPHIC WAVE

  6. LABELING • LABEL THE FOLLOWING ON THE WAVE YOU JUST DREW: • 1. CREST • 2. TROUGH • 3. AMPLITUDE • 4. WAVELENGTH • 5. LOW ENERGY/LOW FREQUENCY • 6. HIGH ENERGY/HIGH FREQUENCY

  7. FIRST FLAPELECTROMAGNETIC WAVES CHARACTERISTICS • LIFT THE FLAP AND WRITE THE FOLLOWING: • WAVES THAT TRAVEL THROUGH EMPTY SPACE AND THROUGH MATTER. THEY RADIATE IN ALL DIRECTIONS. THIS ENERGY IS CALLED RADIANT ENERGY

  8. ABOVE RADIO WAVESUNDER THE FLAP AREA • LONGEST WAVELENGTH, LOWEST FREQUENCY • GIVEN OFF BY LIGHTNING, STARS, TRANSMITTERS • DANGERS – IN HIGH DOSES, CAN CAUSE CANCER • USES – COMMUNICATION – FM, AM, UHF, VHF

  9. LIFT UP RADIO WAVES FLAP • ABOVE MICROWAVES WRITE THE FOLLOWING: • WAVELENGTH – 1-3 CM • GIVEN OFF BY STARS, TRANSMITTERS • DANGERS – CAN CAUSE CATARACTS (EYE PROBLEMS) • USES – COOKING, MOBILE PHONES, RADAR, SPEED CAMERAS

  10. LIFT UP MICROWAVES FLAP AND WRITE THE FOLLOWING • SNAKES CAN “SENSE” INFRARED • GIVEN OFF BY HOT OBJECTS, STARS, LAMPS • DANGERS – OVERHEATING • USES – REMOTE CONTROLS, HEAT LAMPS, NIGHT SIGHTS, THERMAL IMAGING

  11. LIFT UP INFRARED FLAP AND WRITE THE FOLLOWING • THE ONLY WAVELENGTH WE CAN SEE – • ROY G BIV – COLORS OF THE SPECTRUM RED, ORANGE, YELLOW, GREEN, BLUE, INDIGO, VIOLET IN ORDER OF FREQUENCY RED IS THE LOWEST, VIOLET IS THE HIGHEST GIVEN OFF BY ANYTHING HOT ENOUGH TO GLOW DANGERS – RETINA DAMAGE IN THE EYE USES – CD’S, DVD’S, SEEING, LASER POINTERS

  12. LIFT UP THE LIGHT WAVES FLAP AND WRITE THE FOLLOWING: • SOME ANIMALS (BATS, RODENTS, INSECTS AND BIRDS) CAN SEE UV WAVES • GIVEN OFF BY STARS, UV LAMPS • DANGERS – CAN CAUSE RETINA DAMAGE, SUNBURN, SKIN CANCER • USES – TANNING, HARDENING DENTAL FILLINGS OR SEALANTS, KILLING MICROBES, STERILIZING IN HOSPITALS

  13. LIFT UP THE ULTRAVIOLET WAVES FLAP AND WRITE THE FOLLOWING • VERY HIGH FREQUENCY, HIGH ENERGY • CAN GO THROUGH MOST “SOFT” METALS • GIVEN OFF BY STARS, X-RAY MACHINES • DANGER – CAN CAUSE CANCER • USES – TO SEE BROKEN BONES, AIRPORT SECURITY

  14. LIFT UP THE X-RAY FLAP AND WRITE THE FOLLOWING • DANGERS – CAN CAUSE CANCER • USES – DETECTING CANCER, KILLING CANCER (RADIOTHERAPY) • SHORTEST WAVELENGTH, HIGHEST FREQUENCY, HIGH ENERGY • CAN GO THROUGH MOST METALS • GIVEN OFF NATURALLY BY STARS
