Question

Choose the item that best fits each description

(greenhouse effect; a transverse wave; infrared; diffuse reflection; normal; polarization; dispersion; magnetic feilds; x-rays; transformer; blackbody radiation; magnification; specular reflection; middle frequency radio waves; plane mirror; interference; carbon dioxide; ozone; efl waves; carbon monoxide; gamma rays; moving electric charge; lodestone)

clearly seen image in a mirror

main form of radiation emitted by our bodies

light is highest frequency EM wave from list

induces a magnetic field

occurs because carbon dioxide blocks infrared but not visible light

image height divided by object height

colors of a rainbow can be seen because

is not a greenhouse gas

blocks or diminishes light reflected from surfaces

Explanation / Answer

Clearly seen imagein a mirror : Specular Reflection

Main form of radiation emitted by our bodies : infrared

Light is highest frequency EM wave from list: gamma rays

Induces a magnetic field: moving electric charge

Occurs because Carbon dioxide blocks infrared but not visible light : greenhouse effect

Image height divided by object height : magnification

Colors of a rainbow can be seen because: dispersion

Is not a greenhouse gas : ozone

Blocks or diminishes light reflected from surfaces: black body radiation
