What describes light travelling as wave?
a wave model of light.
What describes light travelling through a wave?
wave model of light
Which describes the refraction of a wave?
light ^Changez ^Cuz
Is green light traveling through air an example of a compressional wave?
No. Green light, like all electromagnetic waves, is a transverse wave.
Which one of the following is NOT an example of a compressional wave a wave moving through a coiled spring sound traveling through the air sound traveling through water green light traveling thru air?
Light is an example of an electromagnetic (EM) wave. EM waves are transverse waves, not compressional waves. Sound waves are compressional waves, so both sound traveling through air and water would be compressional. Waves traveling along a coiled spring compress the coils together and spread them apart, so this is also an example of a compressional wave.

No. Green light, like all electromagnetic waves, is a transverse wave.
What describes the natue of light?
In physics, light can be thought of as packets of particles called photons. Light also has a wave nature.
What scripture tells where Paul was traveling when he encountered the light from heaven?
In Acts, verse 9, describes Paul seeing the light.

Sound waves are compressional waves, so both sound traveling through air and water would be compressional.

What pair of terms best describes light waves traveling from the sun to earth?
Electromagnetic and transverse.
The speed of a wave is effected by?
The type of medium and temperature of the medium it is traveling through, to name a couple. There are probably more. Also, the type of wave, as a sound wave is far slower than a light wave.
What describes the amplitude of a wave?
The square of the amplitude gives the intensity of the wave. Intensity in case of sound is sensed as loudness and in case of light as brightness.
Why doesw light bend as it travels from water to aire?
light is a photon wave, the color of the light depends on the length of the wave; as traveling is concerned, the density of water is greater and thus causes a beam divergence greater than in gas.
