I. Introduction
Are you not wondering how you are able to communicate with your loved ones from far places? How were
you able to listen to music from your radio or speakers? Or how your ‘television remote control’ works?
Most of the things we use nowadays are applications of our knowledge about electromagnetic (EM) waves.
We may not see these EM waves, but we encounter their different forms in our daily life. You know more of
these waves than you may think.
After going through these worksheets, you are expected to cite examples of practical applications of the
different regions of EM waves, such as the use of radio waves in telecommunication and among others.
Can you still remember the different forms of electromagnetic waves you have learned from the previous
worksheets? While all these EM waves move through space at the same speed of about three hundred
(300) million meters per second, their wavelengths, frequencies, and energies differ. This is the reason why
they are arranged accordingly in a scheme called electromagnetic spectrum.
Let me remind you that wavelength has an inverse relation with frequency and energy. So, if wavelength
increases, what will happen to the frequency of the wave? If the wavelength of an EM wave decreases,
what will be the effect in its energy?
Let’s compare the relative wavelengths, frequencies, and energies of the different regions of the
electromagnetic spectrum.
Look at the picture below. Write the name of the correct electromagnetic wave corresponding to the letters
on the picture. You may refer your answer to the given pool of words.

Below will let you see the spectrum of a white light. This activity needs simple
materials that are readily available at your home.
To those under the Online modality, kindly document this activity through a video
clip and pass it through our Goggle classroom. (Criteria: 50 points - content of the video
clip; 50 points – presentation creativity)
In the Modular mode, just tell us a story through comic strips of what had happened
in this activity from the beginning up to the end including your best output. (Criteria: 50
points - content of the shared story through comic strips; 50 points – creative visuals)

What to do:
1. Before doing this activity, read the guide questions below.
2. Fill the shallow pan with water of about half full.
3. Put the mirror into the water inside the pan at an angle.
Guide Questions:
A. Prism is a triangular piece of glass that is used to separate white light. From the
activity above, which materials served as a prism?
-The materials served as a prism are the small mirror and the flash
lightB. Explain why white light splits up into different colors when it goes through a prism?
- When light passes through a prism the light bends. As a result, the
different colors that make up white light become separated. This
happens because each color has a particular wavelength and each
wavelength bends at a different angle.
C. Write down the color spectrum you observed in proper order from top to bottom.
V. Activity 4. EM In
Choose the correct term from the enclosed choices that should go into the blank spaces.
1. Radio/television signals, GPS and MRI are practical applications of (radio wave/microwave).
2. Satellite communication, cooking, terrestrial communication, and RADAR make use of
(infrared/microwave).
3. Remote controls, thermal imaging and night vision goggles are practical applications of
(infrared/ultraviolet).
4. You can see things around you because of (gamma rays/visible light) which is also used in optical
fibers, artificial lights and screens of electronic devices.
5. Vitamin D is mostly produced in the skin in response to (ultraviolet /microwave), which is also used
for security markings and sterilization of water in drinking fountains.
7. (long wavelength X-ray)/short wavelength X-ray)) is a type of x-ray that can penetrate the
flesh.
