The picture of
electromagnetic waves passing through the atmosphere is much like that of the
waves on the surface of the water.There are two important aspects about the waves:
1. What kind of wave is
it?:Wavelength or distance
between the peaks of the waves.
2. How big is it?: Amplitude
or distance between peaks and valley.When more radiation is emitted, the amplitude increases.
