Electromagnetic Spectrum Study Guide

Directions: To answer the questions, use the OLS Lessons in Unit 3 and Unit 4 as well as the recordings from October 5th to October 27th. If you use Google to answer the questions, you have to write the answers in your own words. I will not accept a study guide that has answers pulled directly from the internet and I will be checking.
