19. Which of the following correctly describes refraction:
A. Light is transferred to energy.
B. Light bounces off an object or surface.
C. Waves bend around a barrier or object.
D. Waves bend as they move from one medium to another.
20. Which type of electromagnetic waves are used in tv remotes?
A. radio waves

B. a sunbeam striking a window
C. a water wave going around a large rock
D. a rainbow forming after a rain
25. Would changing the amplitude of a transverse wave change its wavelength? Why or why not?
A. Yes, because amplitude and wavelength are directly related so an increase in one would cause an increase in the other.
B. Yes, because amplitude and wavelength are inversely related so an increase in one would cause a decrease in the other.
C. No, because amplitude and wavelength are not related to one another and therefore changing one does not affect the other at all.
D. No, because amplitude and wavelength are the same thing.
