Potpourri $400 ANSWER When myopia (nearsighted) is corrected surgically, the shape of the ________ is changed.

Photons $100 Answer Back to Jeopardy What is a photon? A photon is a wave packet of light.

Photons $200 Answer Back to Jeopardy What is the energy of a photon? Energy = hf Planck’s Constant h = 6.63* J*s

Photons $300 Answer Back to Jeopardy What can happen to a photon as it moved from one medium to another. Absorbed Reflected Refracted

Photons $400 Answer Back to Jeopardy What is the index of refraction? n = c/v

Reflection & Refraction $100 Answer Back to Jeopardy State the Law of Reflection. Angle in = Angle out wrt to the normal normal 

Reflection & Refraction $200 Answer Back to Jeopardy State the Law of Refraction. n 1 sin  1 = n 2 sin  2

Reflection & Refraction $300 Answer Back to Jeopardy Why are optical fibers important for communication? They can carry thousands of times the information that wires can. This is the result of internal refraction.

Reflection & Refraction $400 Answer Back to Jeopardy Certain types of sunglasses are very effective at diminishing light reflected from surfaces because of polarization.

Mirrors $100 Answer Back to Jeopardy The direction of light is positive?

Mirrors $200 Answer Back to Jeopardy Name 3 types of mirrors Flat R = infinity Concave R = + Convex R = -

Mirrors $300 Answer Back to Jeopardy What is the mirror equation? s -1 + p -1 = 2/R = f -1 s = source p= projection

Mirrors $400 Answer Back to Jeopardy What is the magnification equation? s = source p= projection

Lenses $100 Answer Back to Jeopardy Choose the lens having the shortest focal length. A The thickest in the middle has the shortest focal length. These are all positive (converging) lenses

Lenses $200 Answer Back to Jeopardy What is a Diopter? DO =1/f where f is in meters

Lenses $300 Answer Back to Jeopardy What is the thin lens equation? s -1 + p -1 = f -1 =(n 2 /n 1 -1)*(1/R 1 – 1/R 2 ) s = source p= projection

Lenses $400 Answer Back to Jeopardy A person looking through eyeglasses sees virtual & erect images.

Effects $100 Answer Back to Jeopardy Liquid crystal displays make use of polarization.

Effects $200 Answer Back to Jeopardy Light spreads out when it passes through a narrow slit because of diffraction.

Effects $300 Answer Back to Jeopardy When light passes through two or more narrow slits, an alternating dark and bright pattern is observed on a screen because of interference.

Effects $400 Answer Back to Jeopardy The sky is blue because of scattering.

Potpourri $100 Answer Back to Jeopardy Optical fibers work because of total internal reflection.

Potpourri $200 Answer Back to Jeopardy You see colors in a rainbow because of dispersion.

Potpourri $300 Answer Back to Jeopardy A converging lens is used to compensate for hyperopia (farsighted).

Potpourri $400 Answer Back to Jeopardy When myopia (nearsighted) is corrected surgically, the shape of the cornea is changed.
