Radio waves

Electromagnetic waves with the longest wavelengths and lowest frequencies. They are used in broadcasting, communication, and radar.

Microwaves

Electromagnetic waves with shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies than radio waves. They are used in microwave ovens, satellite communication, and radar.

Infrared radiation

Electromagnetic waves with even shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies than microwaves. They are emitted by warm objects and can be felt as heat.

Visible light

Electromagnetic waves that are visible to the human eye. They are responsible for the colors we see.

Study Notes

Electromagnetic Radiation

  • Common types include radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays.

Tensile Stress

  • Defined as force divided by initial surface area (σ = F/Aâ‚€).

Compressive Stress

  • Opposite of tensile stress; pushing instead of pulling on a material.

Shear Stress

  • Force applied perpendicular to the surface.

Torsional Stress

  • Stress causing twisting or deformation.

Processing-Structure-Properties-Performance

  • Performance goals lead to increased strength in metallic materials.

State Changes

  • Freezing: Liquid to solid
  • Melting: Solid to liquid
  • Condensation: Gas to liquid
  • Vaporization: Liquid to gas
  • Deposition: Gas to solid

Materials Cycle

  • Raw materials are synthesized and processed into engineered materials.
  • Products are designed, manufactured, and assembled.
  • Waste is recycled or reused.
  • Applications include agriculture, construction, and environmental protection, with considerations for defense, information, energy, and health.
