    • 2 Pages

    Light is just one portion of the various electromagnetic waves flying through space. The electromagnetic spectrum covers an extremely broad range‚ from radio waves with wavelengths of a meter or more‚ down to x-rays with wavelengths of less than a billionth of a meter. Optical radiation lies between radio waves and x-rays on the spectrum‚ exhibiting a unique mix of ray‚ wave‚ and quantum properties. At x-ray and shorter wavelengths‚ electromagnetic radiation tends to be quite particle like

    LIGHT PEN A light pen is a computer input device in the form of a light-sensitive wand used in conjunction with a computer’s display. It allows the user to point to displayed objects or draw on the screen in a similar way to a touchscreen but with greater positional accuracy. A light pen detects a change of brightness of nearby screen pixels when scanned by cathode ray tube electron beam and communicates the timing of this event to the computer. Since a CRT scans the entire screen one pixel at

    Reflection of Light

    • 914 Words
    • 4 Pages

    Of course‚ we live in an imperfect world and not all surfaces are smooth. When light strikes a rough surface‚ incoming light rays reflect at all sorts of angles because the surface is uneven. This scattering occurs in many of the objects we encounter every day. The surface of paper is a good example. You can see just how rough it is if you peer at it under a microscope. When light hits paper‚ the waves are reflected in all directions. This is what makes paper so incredibly useful -- you can read

    Refraction of Light

    • 477 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Purpose: To investigate the behavior of light when it passes from air into an optically denser medium. Prediction / Hypothesis: When the light (incident ray) passes from air into an optically denser medium with an angle of incidence equal to zero‚ there would be no refraction. When the light passes at an angle from air into an optically denser medium‚ the light (incident ray) will immediately change direction and bent towards the normal which has an angle of incidence of 0. Method:

    • 2 Pages

    Conclusion: Explain‚ in your own words‚ why different elements produce different colors of light when heated. Each element has a unique electron configuration. When heated‚ the electrons are energized and this leads to a higher quantum state. The color depends on the distance you have and the original electron configuration. Why do you think elements must be heated before they emit colored light?The light color is the electronic transitions between orbitals. When an electron drops to a

    Traffic Light If I were to court a boy‚ I would be like the traffic light. I am color yellow‚ whispering take everything slowly but surely. I am color green‚ saying go when everything is going strong. I am color red‚ shouting stop when everything goes wrong. I see color yellow. I let myself stay firm to wait. I just keep waiting for my turn. I am in the middle. I stay neutral. I shall not go fast‚ but shall fire up and set. If I remain sluggish and dawdling‚ I will be left out. If I go too
