2 Guiding Questions for Objective 5 & 6 What are the important parts of a ray diagram? What is the purpose of drawing a ray diagram? How is a ray diagram similar to a force diagram? What causes light to reflect? Describe an example. How do you draw a ray diagram of reflecting light? What parts need to be labeled? What are the differences between an incident ray and a reflected ray? What does Snell's Law tell you about the incident and reflected ray? How do you look different when looking into a concave versus a convex mirror? Why?

3 Vocabulary Terms Objective 5 Terms: ray diagram ray diagram Objective 6 Terms: Reflection of light reflection incident rayreflected ray angleSnell’s Law convex concavebouncenormal Objective 7 Terms: Refraction of light refractioninterface speed medium bend

4 Guiding Questions for Objective 7 How do you draw a ray diagram of refracting light? What parts need to be labeled? What are the differences between an incident ray, a reflected ray, and a refracted ray? What does Snell's Law tell you about the incident and reflected ray? How do you objects look different when looking through a concave lens versus a convex lens? Why?

5 Drawing Ray Diagrams An arrow is used to show the path the light takes An arrow is used to show the path the light takes Light will move in a straight line unless it bumps into something Light will move in a straight line unless it bumps into something A medium is any material light travels through A medium is any material light travels through How are these the same as force diagrams?

6 Reflection – when light bounces off an object Light reflects off a surface at the same angle light hits the surface http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5 oxC9l_u50 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v= Qr8exoX-uE0&feature=related

7 Snell’s Law??? Willebrord Snellius (1580-1626) Dutch astronomer and mathematician Found a new method to calculate the radius of the Earth Ibn Sahl ( ابن سهل‎ ) (940-1000) Persian mathematician, physicist, and optics engineer. Actually derived the law of refraction/reflection

8 Concave – opens like a cave Convex

9 Refraction - light bends going from one medium to another medium

10 Anatomy of Refracted Light interface

11 Why does light bend?? Light changes speed: slows down or speeds up. Why does light change speed? Why does light bend? http://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=y55tzg_jW9I

12 Concave Convex
