Ultrasound

Doppler Effect

EM Wave Basics

Radio and TV

Microwaves

Microwaves absorbed by water, fats and sugars

NOT absorbed by plastic, glass or ceramics

Once the wave is absorbed transferred to atomic motion (Kinetic energy!) which creates heat.

Oven = heat from the outside inMicrowave = heat everywhere, all molecules excited together

hotspots: wave interference

Air in microwave is room temperature (can’t make a crust)

Color

Color Blindness

Cone cells adapt to over-stimulation of light and lose sensitivity

These cone cells become tired and stop firing, whereas the neighboring cone cells fire
