Light and Optics SNC2P Physics

What is light? Light is energy and travels as a wave

Properties of a Wave

Using the picture or your textbook, define these terms: Wavelength: Crest: Trough: Amplitude:

How is light produced? Incandescence: Light is produced by a HOT object. Example: Fire or light bulb in a lamp Not very efficient because heat is produced!! Luminescence: Light is produced without much heat. Example: Glow stick (chemical reaction) or neon lights (fluorescence) ??What tricks can we use to remember what these terms mean??

Examples of Incandescent Light

Examples of Luminescence
