- Frequency
- Wave Speed
- Wavelength
- Frequency is the number of waves to pass a point every second, measured in Hertz (Hz).
- Heinrich Rudolf Hertz
-
- How fast a wave travels is called wave speed, measured in meters per second (m/s). All EM waves travel at the speed of light in a vacuum.
- Wavelength is the length of one wave, measured in meters (m).
- Ionizing
- EM Spectrum
- Amplitude
- A wave that can remove electrons from an atom, thus making them an ion, is said to be ionizing.
- Amplitude is the height of a wave, measured in meters (m). The higher the amplitude, the higher the intensity of the wave.
