Key Questions:

1. (Physics Only)What are the effects of reflection, transmission and absorption of waves at material interfaces?
   • The effects at material interfaces for: reflection are that the wave bounces back at the same angle if the surface is smooth (specular reflection). A rough surface will produce diffused reflection with scattered reflection of the waves. Transmission: If the object is transparent and light can pass through at the same frequency the light waves are said to be transmitted. Absorption of electromagnetic waves will vary between different materials and how easily they will absorb infrared radiation.
