- A. ionising and non-ionising radiation: oscilloscope trace reasoning in a ray-box experiment at a glass boundary
- B. ionising and non-ionising radiation: a generic statement that ignores normal lines, angles and direction changes
- C. ionising and non-ionising radiation: a boundary mistake that confuses reflection versus refraction
- D. ionising and non-ionising radiation: a different Unit 4.6 idea from outside Types of electromagnetic waves
Answer
The correct answer is ionising and non-ionising radiation: oscilloscope trace reasoning in a ray-box experiment at a glass boundary.
Explanation
ionising and non-ionising radiation: oscilloscope trace reasoning in a ray-box experiment at a glass boundary is correct because it uses the named evidence from a ray-box experiment at a glass boundary and stays anchored to Types of electromagnetic waves. It avoids the common boundary error of reflection versus refraction while keeping the learning objective visible.
Common mistake
