24. Sir Isaac Newton Source: NASA Newton was interested in the properties of light. Newton was interested in the properties of light. In 1666, he designed an experiment in which he took two prisms and flashed two rainbows on the wall using sunlight. He then moved the prisms until they were on top of each other. The result was white light. In 1666, he designed an experiment in which he took two prisms and flashed two rainbows on the wall using sunlight. He then moved the prisms until they were on top of each other. The result was white light. Newton led the way for all other scientists to study light and the electromagnetic spectrum. Newton led the way for all other scientists to study light and the electromagnetic spectrum. 3R-46.0 Slide 24

25. Magnetic Energy Wave Electric Energy Wave Light Wave What is light? Light can be thought of as a wave of electric and magnetic energy. Hence, it is called an electromagnetic wave. The two forms of energy flow perpendicular to each other. Light waves are waves of energy that can vary in size and shape. 3R-42.0 Slide 25

27. Light Waves Slide 27

28. Where do you think the light beam is the brightest? A or B Why? Click to the next slide to find out… Slide 28

29. Light waves transfer energy. LIGHT ABSORPTION When you shine a light. As the light beam travels, some of the energy is absorbed by air particles. The energy extends out. Slide 29

30. But wait! There is another reason! Slide 30

31. Air particles can release some of that energy that they had absorbed. LIGHT SCATTERING When you shine a light. BUT Light waves transfer energy to air particles. When the light is released it scatters. This scattering lets you see light outside the light beam, but it is dim because the light has been scattered. Slide 31

32. READY FOR AN OPTICAL ILLUSION? Slide 32

33. If you shine a light into a tank of water, what happens to the light beams when they hit the water? a. The light beam bends b. The light beams stays straight Click for your choices Slide 33

34. R F A T O E R C I N What is this called? Slide 34

35. R F A T O E R C I N In this example, the light wave is moving through two mediums, what are they? a.Solid and gasc. Gas and solid b.Solid and solidd. Gas and liquid Slide 35

36. Why does the light bend? This side of the light wave keeps going at its same speed. This side of the light wave slows down when it hits the glass. When the light moves from one medium to another, such as from air to glass, it slows down. When the light hits the glass at an angle, the waves that hit first slow down first. The waves that don’t hit the glass first are still going at their same, fast speed until they hit the glass. 3R-48.0 Slide 36

41. TRANSMISSION Transmission is the passing of light through matter. So….is light transmitted through a window Slide 41

42. TRANSMISSION If light is transmitted through an object it is said to be transparent. Transparent objects could be air, water, and clear glass. Slide 42

43. TRANSMISSION If light the is transmitted and scattered it is said to be translucent. This shower door is an example of a translucent object. Slide 43

44. TRANSMISSION If light is not transmitted through the object, it is said to be opaque. Light can’t go through the books Or through this wall Slide 44
