Question

chapter 04 quiz: sensation and perception
total points: --/20
attempts left: 3

  1. electromagnetic radiation that travels as a wave is perceived as which type of sensory information?

○ sound
○ taste
○ light
○ smell

  1. an interior designer is choosing a paint color for a room and has two samples that are both blue, however one blue is described as brighter than the other. both would have the same wavelength, but would differ based on what physical property of light?

○ saturation
○ hue
○ there would be no difference
○ amplitude

    1. electromagnetic radiation that travels as a wave is perceived as which type of sensory information?

    ○ sound

    ○ smell

    1. an interior designer is choosing a paint color for a room and has two samples that are both blue, however one blue is described as brighter than the other. both would have the same wavelength, but would differ based on what physical property of light?

    ○ saturation
    ○ hue
    ○ there would be no difference
    ○ amplitude

  2. Brief Explanations

    For the first question: Sensory systems perceive different physical stimuli; electromagnetic waves in the visible spectrum are detected as light, while sound is pressure waves, taste/smell involve chemical stimuli.
    For the second question: Hue corresponds to light wavelength (so same blue = same hue), saturation relates to color purity, and amplitude of light waves determines brightness (higher amplitude = brighter light).

  3. Final answer
    1. Light
    2. Amplitude
