Ray Charles The Life and Legacy of a Genius Ray Charles was a revolutionary pianist and a soul singer who helped shape the sound of rhythm and blues. He brought a soulful sound to everything from country music to pop standards to "God Bless America." His birth name was Ray Charles Robinson‚ but he shortened it when he entered show business to avoid confusion with the famous boxer Sugar Ray Robinson. I chose Ray Charles as the topic for my paper after seeing the movie Ray. After

Some terms related with reflection are – 1. Incident Ray - The light ray striking a reflecting surface is called the incident ray. 2. Reflected Ray – The light ray obtained after reflection from the surface in the same medium in which incident ray is traveling. 3. Normal – The perpendicular drawn to the reflecting surface at the point of incidence is called the Normal. 4. Angle of Incidence – The angle which the incident ray makes with the normal at the point of incidence. It is denoted

Hypothesis: If the light goes through different mediums‚ then the light will bend because it is slowing down as it passes through the medium. Equipment: Semicircular plastic dish Polar graph paper Ray box with single slit Water Syrup Experimental Design: A ray box with a single slit will be shone through a semicircular dish through air‚ water‚ and syrup‚ on top of polar graph paper to see how the light will bend. Procedure: A semicircular dish was placed at the centre

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: 1. The semicircular

called specular or regular reflection. The laws of reflection are as follows: The incident ray‚ the reflected ray and the normal to the reflection surface at the point of the incidence lie in the same plane. The angle which the incident ray makes with the normal is equal to the angle which the reflected ray makes to the same normal. he reflected ray and the incident ray are on the opposite sides of the normal. These three laws can all be derived from the reflection equation

is observed with surface waves in bodies of water. Reflection is observed with many types of electromagnetic wave‚ besides visible light. Reflection of VHF and higher frequencies is important for radio transmission and for radar. Even hard X-rays and gamma rays can be reflected at shallow angles with special "grazing" mirrors. Reflection is the change in direction of a wavefront at an interface between two different media so that the wavefront returns into the medium from which it originated. Common

Dawn is an opposite character relating to Ray and Sylvie‚ just as they have lost their daughter‚ Dawn has lost her parents. This meeting between Ray and Dawn also provides the audience with another side to Ruby that was not previously known- “Real mean streak.” This idea that Ruby is not as innocent as she seems is continuously forced upon the

dots in the centre of the incident and reflected rays. Move the mirror to one side and use the ruler to join the dots to show the complete path of the ray. Add arrows so you know which direction the ray travelled. At the point where the ray reflects from the mirror add a line perpendicular to the mirrors surface - this is the normal line. Use the protractor measure the angle between the normal and the incident ray‚ and the normal and the reflected ray. Note these angles in a table and then repeat
