The refractive index Aim: The aim of this experiment is to find the refractive index of a glass prism. In this experiment‚ the independent variable is the angle of incidence‚ and the dependent variable is the angle of refraction. Theory: Snell’s law relates the angle of incidence and refraction to the ratio of the velocity of the wave in the different media. The formula for Snell’s law is the following: Sin isinr = v1v2 = n Where i is the angle of incidence‚ r is the angle of refraction

The scientific revolution took place between 1500 and 1700‚ with scientists‚ or natural philosophers made many groundbreaking discoveries. A universe composed of matter in motion which could be understood through mathematics and experiment‚ changing the mindsets of many Europeans. The work of the scientists were greatly influenced by the approval of political figures and their desire of power‚ the support and compassion from influential members of the church and social factors that both influenced

The Scientific Method Justin Lancaster SC300-24 The Scientific Method Throughout our lives‚ we face numerous challenges‚ obstacles and difficult decisions that require the use of higher-level thinking. When we process the different possibilities and scenarios in our mind‚ subconsciously we are using the scientific method to problem solve. This basic concept is developed from an early stage in our lives and while it is practiced often in the widespread experiments of science‚ it is a valuable

What does the “Valley of Ashes” represent? Unlike the thriving East and West Eggs‚ the “Valley of Ashes” lies in between them and is presented by Fitzgerald as the borderline between the 2 communities and juxtaposes the lifestyle and society of the roaring 1920’s as poverty is abnormal to society within both Eggs. The use of “Ashes” represents various connotations as Fitzgerald posits the imagery of a wasteland that houses the undesirables of America in which a once tranquil and picturesque “valley”

INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this experiment was to test the validity of the Law of Reflection and Snell’s Law (Also known as the Law of Refraction). Reflection is defined as the reversal in direction of a particle stream or wave upon encountering a boundary. The law of reflection states that the angle of reflection and angle of incidence are equal‚ with each angle being measured from the normal to the boundary: Refraction is defined as the bending of light that takes place at a boundary between

Abstract: This experiment will determine if jumping beans are alive. We tested two groups. Group A and B. We put them in two different areas. Three beans were put in a lit area and three were put in a shaded area. It was found that if the depending on how lit the area is the more movement we saw from the jumping bean. Therefore it can be said that jumping beans are alive and respond to stimuli. Introduction: This Experiment “ Mexican Jumping Beans” focuses on how jumping beans respond to different
