11.4 The Ray Model of Light
2
Group Activity: In groups of 4, determine a way to “group” the materials given by your teacher. When deciding how to group them, think about light and how each object with interact with it. Check in with the teacher once you have made your decision. When the teacher gives you the OK, record your reasoning Glass beakerBook Tissue paperPlastic cup Red plastic cupClear plastic portions cup Zip Loc bagSmall Tupperware dish Wax paperConstruction paper Playing cardPlastic paper sleeve

Light Ray A line and arrow representing the direction and straight-line path of light

Properties of Light When light strikes matter, it can be… 1. Transmitted – light passes through a substance 2. Reflected – light bounces off an object 3. Absorbed – light is absorbed by object and converted to heat
5
Matter can be classified as: Transparent Transmits all or almost all incident light, object can clearly be seen through material Ex. Clear glass
6
Matter can be classified as: Translucent transmits some incident light but absorbs or reflects the rest, objects are not clearly seen through material
7
Matter can be classified as: Opaque Does not transmit any incident light, it either absorbs the light or reflects it. Objects are not seen through material
8
Try this: Classify each of these materials as transparent, translucent or opaque : A textbook Frosted glass A single sheet of tissue paper A clean sheet of glass A rock Apple juice Sunglasses
9
Try this: Classify each of these materials as transparent, translucent or opaque: A textbook- OPAQUE Frosted glass- TRANSLUCENT A single sheet of tissue paper- TRANSLUCENT A clean sheet of glass- TRANSPARENT A rock- OPAQUE Apple juice- TRANSLUCENT Sunglasses- TRANSPARENT
10
Create a Flow Chart In your group, create a flow chart to describe the three things that can happen when a light ray hits an object
11
Colour of Opaque Objects White light his an opaque object and all the colours of the spectrum are absorbed except one
