Introductory Message
Welcome to Science 7!
The Science 7 Activity Sheet will help you facilitate the leaching-learning
activities specified in each Most Essential Learning Competency (MELC) with minimal
or no face-to-face encounter between you and learner. This will be made available to
the learners with the references/links to ease the independent learning.
The Science 7 Activity Sheet is developed to help you continue learning even
if you are not in school. This learning material provides you with meaningful and
engaging activities for independent learning. Being an active learner, carefully read
and understand the instructions then perform the activities and answer the
assessments. This will be returned to your facilitator on the agreed schedule.

Explain the color and intensity of light in terms of its wave characteristics.
(S7LT-IIIf-10)
A rainbow is a band of colors formed in the sky. This results when sunlight hits
droplets of water which acts as tiny prisms separating sunlight into bands of colors as
seen in the figure below.
.
What are these colors that you often see in a rainbow? What determines the
intensity of these colors of light?
In this learning activity, you will be able to explain the colors and intensity of
light in terms of its wave characteristics.
Activity 1.
Directions: The diagram below shows the separation of white light into different
colors as it hits the prism. Study the diagram and answer the questions that follow.
Write your answer on a separate sheet of paper.
Light is made up of wavelengths, and each wavelength is a particular color. The color
you see is a result of which wavelengths are reflected to your eyes.
Activity 2.
Directions:. To understand more about the characteristics of the different colors of light,
study the table below. Write your answer on a separate sheet of paper.
The color of visible light depends on its wavelength. Each color has a
different wavelength. Red has the longest wavelength, and violet has the
shortest wavelength. When all the waves are seen together, they make white light.
Both light and sound can be described in terms of wave forms with physical
characteristics like amplitude, wavelength, and energy. Wavelength and frequency are
inversely related so that longer waves have lower frequencies, and shorter waves
have higher frequencies. In the visual system, a light wave’s wavelength is generally
associated with color, and its amplitude is associated with brightness.
