2 History of Light

3 History of Light Early philosophers (Pythagoras) believed light was made up of tiny particles Later scientist found evidence that light also behaved like a wave. We now understand that light can act both as a particle and a wave.

4 History of Light Light: A form of energy that can be described as both a wave and a particle. Visible light is a type of light that can be detected by the human eye.

History of Light Galileo was the first person to try to measure the speed of light 2 people stood on opposite hilltops with lanterns uncovered the lanterns,

5 History of Light Galileo was the first person to try to measure the speed of light 2 people stood on opposite hilltops with lanterns uncovered the lanterns, timed how long it took for the light to reach the other person used the distance between hilltops and the time to calculate the speed This experiment did not work Why?

6 History of Light Albert Michelson was the first person to successfully measure the speed of light Speed of light : km/ hr Speed of sound km/hr

7 History of Light In a storm, which do you experience first; the sight of the lightning or the sound of thunder? why?

8 Wave model of light Wave Model

9 Wave Model Terms: Crest: The highest point in a wave (the peak)

10 Wave Model Terms: Crest: The highest point in a wave (the peak) Trough: The lowest point in a wave

11 Wave Model Terms: Crest: The highest point in a wave (the peak) Trough: The lowest point in a wave Amplitude: The height of a wave. Measured form the rest position to the crest. measures the energy of the wave (higher amplitude= more energy)

12 Wave Model Terms: Wavelength: The length of one full wave. (from crest to crest or trough to trough) Usually measured in metres

13 Wave Model Terms: Wavelength: The length of one full wave. (from crest to crest or trough to trough) Usually measured in metres Frequency: The number of wavelengths that pass a point in 1 second Measured in Hertz (Hz) High frequency waves have shorter wavelengths Low frequency waves have longer wavelengths

14 Wave Model Label the waves on your worksheet and complete the measurements

15 Light Electromagnetic Spectrum: All of the different wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation (a type of energy) arranged from longest to shortest wavelength Cell Phones Cancer treatment

16 Light Visible Light In the middle of the electromagnetic spectrum The only wavelengths we can see with the human eye Visible Spectrum: ROY G BIV (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet)

17 Properties of Light In the previous class we experimented with light and saw how it interacted with different materials What observations did we make? How did light interact with each of the following? Mirrors Prisms Fabric Paper Solid objects Glass Water Spoon

18 Properties of Light Reflection- Light bounces off some surfaces (ex. Mirrors)

19 Properties of Light Reflection- Light bounces off some surfaces (ex. Mirrors) Refraction- Light bends as it moves form one material to another (ex light moving from air to water)

20 Properties of Light Reflection- Light bounces off some surfaces (ex. Mirrors) Refraction- Light bends as it moves form one material to another (ex light moving from air to water) Dispersion- Light can be separated into its different wavelengths or colours (ex. Rainbows)

$Refraction As light travels from a medium of high density to lower$

80 Refraction As light travels from a medium of high density to lower density the speed of light increases The ray will bend away from the normal

$Refraction As light travels from a medium of high density to lower density the speed of light increases The ray will bend away from the$

81 Refraction As light travels from a medium of high density to lower density the speed of light increases The ray will bend away from the normal As light travels from a medium of low density to higher density the speed of light decreases The ray will bend toward the normal

$refracts light in a predictable$

82 Lenses Lens: A curved piece of transparent material that refracts light in a predictable way. Usually made from glass or plastic

(converge) Images may appear smaller, larger, closer, or further depending on the

83 There are two types of lenses: 1. Convex Lens 2. Concave Lens Diagram Lenses Effect on Light Rays Rays bend toward each other (converge) Images may appear smaller, larger, closer, or further depending on the position of the object Can act as a magnifying glass Rays bend away from each other (diverge) Images will always appear closer and smaller

84 Vision The human eye : Cornea: Transparent layer over the front of the eye, refracts some of the light Iris: Coloured part of the eye which changes size to allow more or less light into the eye Pupil: opening in centre of the iris, light passes through here

85 Vision The human eye : Lens: A convex lens which focuses light entering the eye to the retina Retina: Area at the back of the eye with many light-sensitive cells called rods (low light, black and white) and cones (colour)

86 Vision The human eye : Optic Nerve: The nerve that sends the image to the brain to be interpreted

87 Vision Issues Definition Solution Nearsightedness Can see objects up close but can not focus at a distance Concave lenses Farsightedness Can see objects at a distance but can not focus up close Convex lenses

88 Vision Issues Definition Lens used to correct Astigmatism Caused by an irregular shaped cornea and results in blurred vision Eye glasses Or laser surgery to reshape the cornea Blindness See page. 235 Can result form genetics, disease, malnutrition etc.
