Amplitude-The height of each wave, from crest to trough

Frequency-The amount of waves per second

Wavelength-The distance in between each wave

Wave speed-The speed that a wave travels

Transverse wave-A wave that looks like a squiggly line, used for the electromagnetic spectrum

Longitudinal wave-A wave that expands and contracts, used for sound. It looks like this:

Electromagnetic spectrum-The scale used to measure radiation of waves, with the respective wavelengths and frequencies for each section.

Wave particle duality-A theory in physics that says that matter and light have properties of both waves and particles based on how they are observed

Ionizing radiation-Radiation on the electromagnetic spectrum that starts at UV rays, which can kill cells and cause cancer because the amount of frequency is so high that it can eject an electron from an atom.

Non-ionizing radiation-Radiation on the electromagnetic spectrum that cannot harm human cells because there isn't enough frequency.

Highs of the project

I think that I really improved on my collaboration and leadership this project. I definitely did a lot with directing and helping my teammates on what to do, and I think that this will help me with collaboration on my next projects.

Improvable next time

One thing that I need to improve on is encouraging my teammates to lead rather than doing everything myself. I think that we can get a lot more work done at higher quality if we work together rather than me trying to do everything myself, so I will work on that in the next projects.
