Study Notes

Electromagnetic Radiation

  • Electromagnetic radiation includes forms such as light

Color of an Object

  • The color of an object is determined by the wavelengths of light it absorbs or reflects

Speed of Light

  • The speed of light in a vacuum is a constant value

Behavior of Light

  • When light passes from one medium to another, it is refracted, or bent, due to the change in speed

Compound Interest

  • The formula for compound interest is P(1 + r/n)^(nt)
  • In the formula, 'n' represents the number of times the interest is compounded per year
  • If the principal amount is $1000, the annual interest rate is 5%, and it is compounded annually, the amount after 2 years will be $1102.50
  • If the principal amount is $5000, the annual interest rate is 8%, and it is compounded semiannually, the amount after 3 years will be $6431.19
  • If the principal amount is $2000, the annual interest rate is 6%, and it is compounded quarterly, the amount after 3 years will be $3942.19
