Wavelengths get shorter Wavelengths get longer No change 2.5 / 2.5 pts Ques ! on 2 Ques " on 2: Look under Wave View as you adjust the cursor. What happens to frequency as wavelengths get shorter? Frequency increases Frequency decreases No change 2.5 / 2.5 pts Ques ! on 3 Ques " on 3: As you move the slider around the visible spectrum, what is the rela " onship between frequency and energy? Energy increases as frequency increases Energy decreases as frequency increases Energy increases as frequency decreases There is no rela " onship and the numbers are random 2.5 / 2.5 pts Ques ! on 4 Ques " on 4: Set the visible spectrum to 450nm. What color is shown? Red Blue Green Orange 2.5 / 2.5 pts Ques ! on 5 Ques " on 5: Which type of radia " on has the longest wavelength? Radio Gamma Infrared Microwave 2.5 / 2.5 pts Ques ! on 6 Ques " on 6: Which type of radia " on has the shortest wavelength? Gamma UV X-rays Radio 2.5 / 2.5 pts Ques ! on 7 Ques " on 7: Which part of the EM spectrum do op " cal telescopes use? Radio waves Microwaves Visible light Ultraviolet waves 2.5 / 2.5 pts Ques ! on 8 Ques " on 8: Which type of radia " on is best for astronomers to used when detec " ng background radia " on from the origin of the universe? Microwave Gamma rays Infrared Radio X-rays 2.5 / 2.5 pts Ques ! on 9 Ques " on 9: According to the ar " cle, what are false colors? Parts of the EM spectrum we haven't discovered yet Parts of the EM spectrum which can't be seen with the naked eye, but which computers can turn into visible spectrum colors Colors based on non-EM spectrum informa " on such as eleva " on 2.5 / 2.5 pts Ques ! on 10 Ques " on 10: According to the video “Detec " ng light in space”, why do the X-ray telescopes need to be put in space, but radio telescopes can be used on Earth? (the i bu ! on can be clicked to view a transcript). X-rays don't penetrate the atmosphere, but radio waves do Radio waves don't penetrate the atmosphere, but x-rays do X-rays are used to detect objects in space such as galaxy clusters, whereas radio waves are used only for objects on Earth Both x-ray telescopes and radio telescopes work best in space, but either can be used on Earth 2.5 / 2.5 pts Ques ! on 11 Answer 1: Answer 2: Answer 3: Incorrect Incorrect Ques " on 11: Fill in the blank: chlorophyll strongly absorbs red light and blue light and strongly reflect green light red light blue light green light 2.5 / 2.5 pts Ques ! on 12 Ques " on 12: What percentage of water is reflected at 1.5 micrometers (rounded to the nearest whole number)? 2% 10% 0% 80% 2.5 / 2.5 pts Ques ! on 13 Ques " on 13: According to the sec " on about water, what part of the EM spectrum should this “bump” be reflec " ng? Blue visible light Red visible light Near-infrared Microwave 2.5 / 2.5 pts Ques ! on 14 Ques " on 14: What percentage of soil is reflected at 1.5 micrometers (rounded to the nearest whole number) 48% 5% 75% 10% 2.5 / 2.5 pts Ques ! on 15 Ques " on 15: According to the cap " on under the Landsat image, what do these colors represent? Color di ff erences which indicate areas in drought vs flood Wavelengths which cannot be seen with the naked eye which needs to be shown through a computer The closest to what you would see if you're flying over the area in a plane and looking down at the ground California 2.5 / 2.5 pts Ques ! on 16 Ques " on 16: According to the cap " on under the Landsat image, when is this type of image useful?
